For more than a century, the laws of thermodynamics have helped us understand how energy moves, how engines work, and why time seems to flow in one direction. Now, researchers have made a similarly ...

Boron nitride sensors enable quantum measurements under crushing pressure, redefining high-pressure physics. The quantum world is already full of mysteries, but what happens when this strange domain ...

Physicists have performed the first quantum calculations to be carried out using individual atoms sitting on a surface. At some level, everything in nature is quantum and can, in principle, perform ...

Quantum mechanics describes the weird behavior of microscopic particles. Using quantum systems to perform computation promises to allow researchers to solve problems in areas from chemistry to ...

Physics has a reputation for being dominated by men, especially a century ago, as quantum physics was just being invented – ...

Building a working quantum internet would require overcoming a host of technical challenges, but researchers who have built ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics.John Clarke, ...

Scientists recently created a never-before-seen four-atom molecule — the coldest of its kind ever made. Researchers created the oddball molecule — a strange configuration of sodium-potassium with an ...

Quantum physics has long been the go-to discipline for anyone in need of a pseudo-scientific justification for a quack theory. The mysterious, indeterminate nature of quantum causation is said to ...
