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 ...

Forgetting feels like a failure of attention, but physics treats it as a fundamental process with a measurable price. At the ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

As the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology draws to a close, Margaret Harris revisits some of the year’s ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to ...

Physicists have proposed modifications to the infamous Schrödinger's cat paradox that could help explain why quantum particles can exist in more than one state simultaneously, while large objects ...

A further benefit is that the channels can be multiplexed, allowing many quantum processors to access the system at the same ...
