In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of ...

Protons, the positively charged particles that help build every atom in our bodies, are starting to look less like classical ...

When quantum particles work together, they can produce signals far stronger than any one particle could generate alone. This ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

The fifth state of matter—the ultracold Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)—has been an invaluable tool in unlocking the secrets ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

Researchers have demonstrated for the first time self-induced superradiance in quantum particles, completely flipping what ...

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of quantum computers and voltage standards. The appearance of Shapiro steps in ...

A new study in Nature Physics has turned an old problem on its head by reporting a way to use the noisy interactions between ...

A new theory of quantum gravity, which attempts to unite quantum physics with Einstein's relativity, could help solve the puzzle of the universe's expansion, a theoretical paper suggests. When you ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

A recent groundbreaking experiment in which anesthesia was administered to rats has convinced some scientists that tiny structures in the rodents’ brains are responsible for the experience of ...
