An “echo” that arrives before you finish speaking sounds like a glitch. In quantum hardware, that kind of self-interference ...

A pair of photons enters an optical maze, and sometimes they leave as something new. Not new in the everyday sense, since both were still photons when they came out.

In 1697, Newton solved a challenge overnight — but the real breakthrough came from a deeper idea that would outlive them all.

Few innovators bridge computational astrophysics, enterprise-scale artificial intelligence, and quantum computing while ...

Scientists test Einstein’s quantum challenge with one atom, directly measuring when photon paths erase interference stripes.

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

Although the basic idea of quantum physics dates back to the earliest years of the twentieth century, it wasn’t until 1925, on the German island of Heligoland, that Werner Heisenberg had the ...

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

To capture higher-definition and sharper images of cosmological objects, astronomers sometimes combine the data collected by ...

Quantum computing firm Xanadu has launched a new research initiative with defense giant Lockheed ...

Researchers have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that's compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding ...

Henry Yuen is developing a new mathematical language to describe problems whose inputs and outputs aren’t ordinary numbers.
