The search for quantum gravity is the next big step in physics, as researchers seek to unify the physics of the very small ...

A recent experiment at Fermilab has delivered intriguing results that challenge standard predictions, adding fuel to the ...

“Quantum clocks running at the smallest scales were expected to lower the energy cost of timekeeping, but our new experiment ...

A new experiment could in principle test the quantumness of an object regardless of its mass or energy. An experiment outlined by a UCL (University College London)-led team of scientists from the UK ...

Humanity has achieved remarkable feats, yet 95% of the universe remains invisible and unexplained. Our theories, general ...

IonQ's competitor D-Wave may have an advantage in bringing quantum computers to AI due to its focus on technology called ...

In 1971, graduate student Stuart Freedman and postdoctoral fellow John Clauser took over a room in the sub-basement of Birge Hall at the University of California, Berkeley, and built an experiment ...

(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– Scientists at UC Santa Barbara have devised a new type of superconducting circuit that behaves quantum mechanically –– but has up to five levels of energy instead of the ...

This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American This was supposed to be an action-packed ...

The double-slit experiment is the best demonstration of quantum weirdness, in which electrons simultaneously act like particles and waves and seemingly violate basic laws of physics. Now we’re trying ...

An experiment outlined by a UCL-led team could test whether relatively large masses have a quantum nature, resolving the question of whether quantum mechanical description works at a much larger scale ...
