Are quantum particles polygamous? New experiments suggest some of them abandon long-standing partnerships when ...

Quantum particles have a social life, of a sort. They interact and form relationships with each other, and one of the most ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further.

To explore how spin systems behave collectively, the researchers coupled a dense ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in ...

The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, interacting very weakly with ordinary ...

Understanding the chemical properties of a molecule is an inherently quantum problem, making quantum computers a good tool ...

Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths generalize the familiar trajectories predicted by Einstein’s general theory of ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily ...

A recent groundbreaking experiment in which anesthesia was administered to rats has convinced some scientists that tiny structures in the rodents’ brains are responsible for the experience of ...
