The operation of quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, relies on the ...

For more than a century, the laws of thermodynamics have helped us understand how energy moves, how engines work, and why time seems to flow in one direction. Now, researchers have made a similarly ...

Imagine if electricity could flow without resistance, or if computers could process data at unimaginable speeds. Achieving ...

Bluefors leads the market with the most extensive installed base worldwide, having delivered over 1,500 dilution refrigerators and more than 15,000 cryocoolers to date. This collaboration will ...

CERN scientists have analyzed a particle of antimatter isolated in an undecided quantum state known as a superposition for the first time. While the quantum behavior of ordinary matter has been ...

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

In theory, quantum physics can bypass the hard mathematical problems at the root of modern encryption. A new proof shows how.

Christopher Nolan's new film 'Oppenheimer' features complex science. He brought on scientists to make sure he got it right, but they said they didn't have to do much. Nolan had researched enough about ...

Made out of a fluorescent protein, the qubit is just 3 nanometers in diameter, scientists report August 20 in Nature. By hitting the protein with laser light, tweaking it with microwaves and observing ...

A hidden world of quantum metrologists ensure that everyday devices perform safely and correctly, but their work is never ...
