This interaction could help explain both why quantum processes can occur within environments like the brain and why we lose ...

Hardy's paradox, created in 1992, hinted at a scenario haunting the edges of quantum physics. It presented a thought ...

Physicists call this strange state a quantum spin liquid, and for decades it has been one of the most elusive phases of ...

With 2025 being the Year of Quantum, celebrating 100 years of quantum science, the latest episode of the University of Liverpool’s Original Ideas podcast turns its attention to the extraordinary and ...

Reality is stranger than you think. Seriously. While we go about our daily lives, convinced we understand the basics of ...

A team of researchers at the University of Waterloo have made a breakthrough in quantum computing that elegantly bypasses the ...

If you picture an electron breaking free from a solid, the process seems simple. Give it enough energy, and it should blast off into space. But a team of researchers from TU Wien and their colleagues ...

Physicist Paul Davies’s Quantum 2.0: The past, present and future of quantum physics ends on a beautiful note. “To be aware of the quantum world is to glimpse something of the majesty and elegance of ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to ...

At first glance, however, quantum physics does not really seem to adhere to this rule: Mathematically speaking, entropy in quantum systems always remains the same. A research team at TU Wien has now ...

Quantum physics fundamentally redefines our understanding of nature by describing the behaviour of matter and energy at the smallest scales. Unlike classical theories, quantum mechanics reveals that ...
