A new study has revealed how tiny imperfections and vibrations inside a promising quantum material could be used to control ...

Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform ...

Physicists have produced experimental evidence that anyons, exotic quasiparticles long thought to exist only in ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one.

In chemistry, molecules with a "flat" geometry are often stable enough to support a wide range of reactions. But in the quantum world, that's not technically true.

“The theoretical framework we developed explains how quasiparticles emerge in systems with an extremely heavy impurity, ...

A team at Google Quantum AI, led by researcher Craig Gidney, has shown that breaking RSA-2048 encryption could require roughly 20 times fewer physical qubits than previously estimated, collapsing the ...

One hundred years ago on a quiet, rocky island, German physicist Werner Heisenberg helped set in motion a series of scientific developments that would touch nearly all of physics. There, Heisenberg ...

U.S. government contractor Q-CTRL told Newsweek its quantum sensors would be deployed later this year as GPS jamming ...
