Heidelberg physicists just united two opposing quantum theories
Reported byScienceDaily ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Physicists at Heidelberg University's Institute for Theoretical Physics unified two competing quantum models—the Fermi polaron quasiparticle model and Anderson's orthogonality catastrophe—that have been treated separately for decades, resolving a fundamental puzzle about how impurities behave in many-particle quantum systems.
