This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to UNESCO, marking 100 years since quantum mechanics was proposed. The theory hardly needed the extra publicity, though ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

Day,” when quantum computers can break today’s encryption—possibly by 2030—posing risks for crypto, security, and finance.

Quantum entanglement — once dismissed by Albert Einstein as “spooky action at a distance” — has long captured the public imagination and puzzled even seasoned scientists. But for today’s quantum ...

Trapping ultracold atoms with laser light let researchers magnify and then image the wave functions of atoms that were ...

Death is the inescapable conclusion of life. But what happens after death is still a highly debated topic. Throw into the mix a heady combination of religious belief and scientific theories, and you ...

The world is awash in self-help gurus promising the secrets to manifestation and abundance. But Jim Curtis, a transformational coach with a background as diverse as his approach, transcends the ...
