This is what fun looks like for a particular set of theoretical chemists driven to solve extremely difficult problems: ...

Since the 1990s, evidence has been growing that quantum computers should be able to solve a range of particularly complex ...

In the everyday world that humans experience, objects behave in a predictable way, explained by classical physics. One of the important aspects of classical physics is that nothing, not even ...

Maria Violaris works on quantum foundations as an academic visitor at the University of Oxford, UK, and on quantum computing at Oxford Quantum Circuits, Reading, UK. Norma G. Sanchez, is the founder ...

Quantum entanglement, an inextricable link between particles, is an important resource for quantum computing and communication – and in some cases, it may also be a resource that can be shared nearly ...

A team of theoretical researchers used thermal effective theory to demonstrate that quantum entanglement follows universal rules across all dimensions. Their study was published online in Physical ...

While quantum entanglement mimicks the first law of thermodynamics in terms of entropy in a system, scientists wonder if the second law—especially the part about reversibility—could hold true. A new ...

Particles that don’t seem to be entangled have earned a high score on a famous test of entanglement. The experiment could offer a fresh look at what makes the quantum world so strange. Nearly 60 years ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Creating quantum entanglement from scratch can be tricky business, so researchers are exploring ways that entangled pairs can “share” these states ...
