A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...

Physicists at the University of Stuttgart, Germany have teleported a quantum state between photons generated by two different ...

Scientists developed a theory linking mobile and static behaviors of a particle in a Fermi sea, explaining quasiparticles and ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

Replication is a cornerstone of science, yet even in the natural sciences, attempts to reproduce results do not always succeed. Quantum computing promises machines that can solve certain problems far ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

Physicists seem to be obsessed with cats. James Clerk Maxwell, the father of electrodynamics, studied falling feline s to investigate how they turned as they fell. Many physics teachers have used a ...

A real mind-melter: Quantum mechanics is strange, but even for a field of science that regularly defies our conventional understanding of reality, the latest discovery is particularly baffling.

Quantum physics didn’t set out to explain the mind. It set out to explain matter. And yet, the deeper scientists went into ...
