First formulated in 1935, the famous thought experiment attempts to explain the weirdness of quantum superposition, but a new ...

Quantum computers have the potential of outperforming classical computers in some optimization and data processing tasks. However, quantum systems are also more sensitive to noise and thus prone to ...

An international team of researchers has found a surprisingly simple relationship between the rates of energy and information transmission across an interface connecting two quantum field theories.

It's one thing to dream up a quantum internet that could send hacker-proof information around the world via photons superimposed in different quantum states. It's quite another to physically show it's ...

Scientists used swirling water waves to simulate a quantum effect, uncovering rotating nodal patterns that could deepen understanding of hidden quantum phenomena.

Quantum mechanical effects such as radioactive decay, or more generally: 'tunneling', display intriguing mathematical patterns. Researchers now show that a 40-year-old mathematical discovery can be ...

Time travel is still science fiction, but scientists have managed to make quantum systems appear to run backward in time. The breakthrough could pave the way for smarter quantum computers and entirely ...

Three physicists have been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for demonstrating quantum physics at the macroscopic scale. The research, including into the bizarre phenomena of quantum tunnelling ...

Quantum entanglement is often described as one of nature’s strangest secrets. Now, scientists have found it inside a crystal large enough to see without a microscope. The discovery shows that quantum ...

In the world of theoretical physics, some ideas solve a problem. Others reshape an entire field. Jainendra K. Jain's theory ...

Building useful quantum technologies—from sensors to computers—requires generating highly complex entangled states, in which the properties of particles are deeply intertwined. Producing such states ...
