That quantum mechanics is a successful theory is not in dispute. It makes astonishingly accurate predictions about the nature of the world at microscopic scales. What has been in dispute for nearly a ...
Quantum mechanics has always had a way of making even the sharpest minds stop and scratch their heads. In the everyday world, you expect objects to follow straightforward rules. A ball thrown into the ...

A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, creating a single particle of light that behaves as if it occupies 37 distinct ...
In anti-Klein tunneling, sound waves bounce back as if hitting an invisible wall; in Klein tunneling, they pass through the barrier effortlessly—as if the wall isn’t there at all. In a groundbreaking ...
