Two recent studies published in Nature and Science Advances explored quantum approaches that could improve the precision of ...

Scientists learned that reading a quantum clock requires orders of magnitude more energy than running it. This surprising imbalance reveals that observation itself shapes the flow and thermodynamics ...

A recent study has unveiled a surprising revelation about quantum timekeeping: the energy required to read a quantum clock ...

For decades, quantum physics and general relativity have stood as two powerful but separate theories. Quantum physics explains the behavior of tiny particles like atoms and photons. General relativity ...

Experiments show that a time crystal based on magnons can interact with mechanical waves without being destroyed.
