Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...

Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve problems that overwhelm today’s most powerful supercomputers. Instead of ...

A breakthrough experiment in the quantum world shows photons in 37 dimensions, revealing reality beyond classical physics.

A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers at LMU to detect even the smallest ...

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

This interaction could help explain both why quantum processes can occur within environments like the brain and why we lose ...

How a rejected paper by Kolkata physicist Satyendra Nath Bose, backed by Albert Einstein, laid the scientific foundation for ...

A new study enhances hydrogen molecule predictions, achieving unprecedented precision in testing fundamental physics and ...

Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Have you ever doubted your knowledge or expertise? Noticed, if you’re a woman, that you receive less recognition than your male colleagues do, that your ideas were unheard in a discussion until they ...

A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...
