Quantum entanglement happens when two particles become interconnected and share a single state. Scientists have measured how ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

Researchers have designed a new device that can efficiently create multiple frequency-entangled photons, a feat that cannot be achieved with today's optical devices. The new approach could open a path ...

Physicists uncover a universal limit on timekeeping precision, proving that anything from heartbeats to ocean waves can be a ...

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 ...

Artificial intelligence is still remaking the global economy, but a second, deeper tremor is already building underneath it.

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In the fall of 2022, a Princeton University graduate student named Carolina Figueiredo stumbled onto a massive coincidence. She ...

Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...

Can quantum physics enable better, cheaper, faster satellite photos? In a month or two, a startup will test a “quantum camera ...
