What makes something quantum? This question has kept a small but dedicated fraction of the world's population—most of them ...

In the world of quantum mechanics, where reality often defies intuition, scientists have just stumbled upon something even ...

Many objects that we normally deal with in quantum physics are only visible with special microscopes—individual molecules or ...

For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...

Researchers have announced results from a new search at the European X-ray Free Electron Laser (European XFEL) Facility at ...

Microsoft on Wednesday announced Majorana 1, its first quantum computing chip. The achievement comes after the company has ...

However, more proof that the chip will work as advertised will be needed to convince some skeptical scientists.

Quantum calculations amount to sophisticated estimates. But in 1931, Hans Bethe intuited precisely how a chain of particles ...

Oxford scientists teleported quantum gates across six feet, linking separate processors. This step could lead to modular ...

Quasiparticles are collections of particles (and, in some cases, field lines) that can be described mathematically as if they ...

By blending digital control with analog simulations, scientists have created a powerful new quantum simulator that pushes ...
