A team of researchers led by the University of Warwick has developed the first unified framework for detecting "spacetime ...

Record-breaking experiment shows that a cluster of thousands of atoms can act like a wave as well as a particle.

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

Does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? The answer goes against everything we thought we knew. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...
