Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

Quantum entanglement happens when two particles become interconnected and share a single state. Scientists have measured how ...

Physicists have revealed a quantum state once thought impossible, where topology emerges even without particle-like electrons ...

What if you could create new materials just by shining a light at them? To most, this sounds like science fiction or alchemy, ...

Forgetting feels like a failure of attention, but physics treats it as a fundamental process with a measurable price. At the smallest scales, erasing information is not free, it consumes energy and ...

Physicists are preparing an experiment that sounds like science fiction: a device designed to snare individual particles of ...

Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further. Quantum timekeeping comes with the paradoxes of quantum mechanics, a new study ...

A team of researchers at the University of Waterloo have made a breakthrough in quantum computing that elegantly bypasses the ...
