In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of ...

Hardy's paradox, created in 1992, hinted at a scenario haunting the edges of quantum physics. It presented a thought ...

A team of physicists has coaxed a single, photon-like particle into behaving as if it lives in 37 different quantum ...

Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be determined by examining the state ...

The Aquila magneto-optical trap in QuEra’s facilities. Subatomic particles such as quarks can pair up when linked by ‘strings’ of force fields — and release energy when the strings are pulled to the ...

A single nanoparticle made of glass (a white point near the center of the photo) is confined in an optical potential created with a focused laser beam. By detecting the light scattered by the ...

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

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

When quantum particles work together, they can produce signals far stronger than any one particle could generate alone. This ...

Researchers unveil a quantum measurement protocol that tracks the velocity and direction of wave-like dark matter particles.

Quantum superposition is a phenomenon in which a tiny particle can be in two states at the same time — but only if it is not being directly observed. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...
