The famous double-slit experiment brings into question the very nature of matter. Its cousin, the quantum eraser experiment, ...

A quiet shift is taking place in physics labs that could one day reshape how you send a message, store data, or protect ...

Quantum mechanics is our most successful physical theory. Created to account for atomic phenomena, it has a vast range of applications extending well beyond the atomic realm, from predicting the ...

TU Wien researchers have uncovered a quantum twist to the paths particles take through spacetime — one that could finally ...

For decades, quantum physics and general relativity have stood as two powerful but separate theories. Quantum physics explains the behavior of tiny particles like atoms and photons. General relativity ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In the fall of 2022, a Princeton University graduate student named Carolina Figueiredo stumbled onto a massive coincidence. She ...

Laurent Simons, a 15-year-old prodigy, has completed his PhD in quantum physics from Belgium’s University of Antwerp, in what could be a record time. The teen, who completed his bachelor’s degree in ...

In a milestone that brings quantum computing tangibly closer to large-scale practical use, scientists at Oxford University Physics have demonstrated the first instance of distributed quantum computing ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

Quantum physics fundamentally redefines our understanding of nature by describing the behaviour of matter and energy at the smallest scales. Unlike classical theories, quantum mechanics reveals that ...
