Quantum laws loom ever larger in physical world as new
research finds quantum phenomena in effect on a molecular level
New research shows that movement of the ring-like molecule
pyrrole over a metal surface runs counter to the centuries-old laws of
‘classical’ physics that govern our everyday world.
Using uniquely sensitive experimental techniques, scientists
have found that laws of quantum physics - believed primarily to influence at
only sub-atomic levels – can actually impact on a molecular level.
