Traditional computers rely on binary bits for computation, while quantum computers utilize quantum bits that have superposition properties. The research team chose atoms as carriers for quantum bits ...

Textbooks give strange, imprecise explanations of where things happen in quantum mechanics. Consistency with gravity needs a fresh approach.

Physicists at the University of Oxford have successfully linked two atomic clocks through quantum entanglement for the first time. The feat can help make these clocks so precise that they begin to ...

Researchers at UBC have found a way to mimic the elusive Schwinger effect using superfluid helium, where vortex pairs appear ...

Nikhil Malvankar, a Mumbai-born professor at Yale has blended biology and quantum mechanics to uncover a microbial mystery ...

One notable example is the $34 million secured by British quantum algorithms specialist Phasecraft from a group of investors, ...

Stress is a very real factor in the structure of our universe. Not the kind of stress that students experience when taking a ...

Physicists have entangled two optical atomic clocks for the first time. This breakthrough could be a way to go beyond even the most cutting-edge current limit of timekeeping as well as being a ...

In 1927, Oppenheimer published a paper called “On the Quantum Theory of Molecules” with his research adviser Max Born. This paper outlined what is commonly referred to as the Born-Oppenheimer ...

Superconductors are materials with no electrical resistance whatsoever, commonly requiring extremely low temperatures. They are used in a wide range of domains, from medical applications to a central ...
