If true, the idea would blow past one of physics’ most sacred limits: that parallel versions of reality can never talk to ...

John Martinis has already revolutionised quantum computing twice. Now, he is working on another radical rethink of the technology that could deliver machines with unrivalled capabilities ...

Time feels steady and familiar in daily life, but at the quantum level it becomes slippery. That puzzle now has a fresh twist ...

Researchers have demonstrated that a nanoparticle of 7,000 sodium atoms can act as a wave, creating a record-setting ...

Concerns that quantum computers may start easily hacking into previously secure communications has motivated researchers to ...

The Pauli exclusion principle is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of particle physics and is essential for the structure and stability of matter. Now an international collaboration of physicists ...

The team have pushed the boundaries of quantum mechanics beyond what some thought possible. Now they want to go even further ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

A sensitive matter-wave interferometer measuring moiré fringes offers force sensitivity comparable to quantum interference ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

Quantum mechanics has always carried a quiet tension. At its core, the theory allows particles to exist in many states at ...
