An “echo” that arrives before you finish speaking sounds like a glitch. In quantum hardware, that kind of self-interference ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama themselves. A new theoretical framework now flips that script, treating space ...

Henry Yuen is developing a new mathematical language to describe problems whose inputs and outputs aren’t ordinary numbers.

Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

"We have long treated the Planck scale like a blurry limit," said Kulkarni. "But if you treat space as an information storage medium, geometry dictates a specific packing efficiency. The universe has ...

Quantum computing firm Xanadu has launched a new research initiative with defense giant Lockheed ...

“The theoretical framework we developed explains how quasiparticles emerge in systems with an extremely heavy impurity, ...

A new study published in Scientific Reports simulates particle creation in an expanding universe using IBM quantum computers, demonstrating the digital quantum simulation of quantum field theory for ...

A team led by a physicist from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) recently developed a new quantum theory that explains the "light-induced phase" of matter and predicts its novel functionalities.

In 1697, Newton solved a challenge overnight — but the real breakthrough came from a deeper idea that would outlive them all.

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...
