A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

CERN scientists have analyzed a particle of antimatter isolated in an undecided quantum state known as a superposition for the first time. While the quantum behavior of ordinary matter has been ...

Quantum mechanics theory predicts that, in addition to exhibiting particle-like behavior, particles of all sizes can also ...

A hidden world of quantum metrologists ensure that everyday devices perform safely and correctly, but their work is never ...

Made out of a fluorescent protein, the qubit is just 3 nanometers in diameter, scientists report August 20 in Nature. By hitting the protein with laser light, tweaking it with microwaves and observing ...

In theory, quantum physics can bypass the hard mathematical problems at the root of modern encryption. A new proof shows how.

Yale researchers just made the first, albeit simple, quantum processor. The processor is made of two artificial atoms (each made of a billion aluminum atoms) that act like single atoms that can occupy ...

Scientists recently created a never-before-seen four-atom molecule — the coldest of its kind ever made. Researchers created the oddball molecule — a strange configuration of sodium-potassium with an ...

Christopher Nolan's new film 'Oppenheimer' features complex science. He brought on scientists to make sure he got it right, but they said they didn't have to do much. Nolan had researched enough about ...

Quantum physics has long been the go-to discipline for anyone in need of a pseudo-scientific justification for a quack theory. The mysterious, indeterminate nature of quantum causation is said to ...
