Since its development 100 years ago, quantum mechanics has revolutionized our understanding of nature, revealing a bizarre ...

Quantum computing will not deliver truly useful business results overnight, but the pace of progress is no longer linear; ...

Scientists have finally uncovered a quantum counterpart to Carnot’s famed second law, showing that entanglement—once thought ...

Physicists recently mapped the hidden shape that underlies the quantum behaviors of a crystal, using a new method that’s expected to become ubiquitous.

Max Planck really got the ball rolling for quantum physics by introducing the idea of energy coming in tiny packets, or ...

Heat and energy are central concepts in thermodynamics, an important field of physics and even one of its cornerstones. Information theory, on the other hand, is an abstract topic in mathematics.

With the advent of quantum computing, deep learning, and the holographic principle, physicists are no longer peering beyond the event horizon they are mapping out the quantum architecture of space ...

In physics, the truly surprising content—concepts that go against your intuition about the universe—emerges around high school, when students can glimpse the strange quantum world and ...

Does quantum physics place limits on the extent to which we have free will? This long-debated question stems from the way different physicists interpret the mathematics of quantum theory, but now ...

Two Maine artists collaborate on a giant interactive fabric flower sculptures, using Transformit materials. Quantum physics ...
