Amid high expectations for quantum technology, a new paper in Science reports a proven quantum advantage. In an experiment, ...

In an article published in Communications Physics, researchers from the Université libre de Bruxelles and the Institute for ...

A levitated nanoscale particle in vacuum represents an isolated system where researchers can study the transition between classical and quantum mechanics. It also offers a testbed for building new ...

Scientists then defined the “edge” of this gaseous material by introducing a laser, which formed a wall around the atoms. Once atoms encountered this light, they flowed in just one direction—much like ...

Cold atom experiments trap atoms to probe quantum effects, enabling ultra-precise sensing, timekeeping, and monitoring of ...

Researchers at the University of Chicago have turned fluorescent proteins into biological qubits, enabling living cells to ...

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

A real mind-melter: Quantum mechanics is strange, but even for a field of science that regularly defies our conventional understanding of reality, the latest discovery is particularly baffling.

Scientists at the University of Chicago have detected the first evidence of a phenomenon called “quantum superchemistry.” Long predicted but never confirmed, this effect could speed up chemical ...

The Irish mathematician and physicist William Rowan Hamilton, who was born 220 years ago last month, is famous for carving some mathematical graffiti into Dublin's Broome Bridge in 1843.

Prof. Gregory Bentsen -- theory Quantum information scrambling, quantum many-body dynamics, quantum simulation & advantage. Prof. Ebubechukwu Ilo-Okeke -- theory Quantum information for cold atoms, ...

Physicists seem to be obsessed with cats. James Clerk Maxwell, the father of electrodynamics, studied falling feline s to investigate how they turned as they fell. Many physics teachers have used a ...
