A team at the University of Chicago has discovered a surprisingly simple way to create powerful quantum states that are normally difficult to produce. By making small adjustments to the energy levels ...

A breakthrough quantum physics experiment has revealed a startling result. Scientists measured “negative time” as photons ...

Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity. Now a new theoretical study pushes that weirdness into even stranger territory. It ...

Quantum mechanics, unlike classical physics, allows objects to exist in more than one state at the same time. This idea is ...

Quantum physics is often described as the most successful scientific framework in history. In its 100 years of existence, it has explained everything from the periodic table of the elements to how ...

Nuclear physicists used a little magic in their latest experiment conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...

Does quantum physics place limits on the extent to which we have free will? This long-debated question stems from the way different physicists interpret the mathematics of quantum theory, but now ...

In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle natures can’t be measured at the same time. Now, two ...

Quantum technologies are often associated with extraordinary complexity. The states that give quantum devices their potential ...
