Quantum computing promises to solve the seemingly unsolvable in fields such as physics, medicine, cryptography and more.

The concept of quantum entanglement is emblematic of the gap between classical and quantum physics. Referring to a situation ...

The difference between traditional computers and quantum computers is narrowing in their ability to simulate the scrambling ...

Although the basic idea of quantum physics dates back to the earliest years of the twentieth century, it wasn’t until 1925, on the German island of Heligoland, that Werner Heisenberg had the ...

It's one thing when a respected scientist has a novel idea of what dark matter or dark energy might be, or what could explain ...

A new light-based method lets tiny quantum dots release perfectly controlled photons, opening doors to faster and cheaper quantum technology.

ETH Zurich scientists have levitated a tower of three nano glass spheres using optical tweezers, suppressing almost all classical motion to observe quantum zero-point fluctuations with unprecedented ...

The speed of light, c, is not just a very large number. In modern physics it is a structural constant: the conversion factor ...
