A new theory could resolve longstanding tensions in mutually exclusive ideas about physics.

With the help of a new experiment, researchers have succeeded in confirming a ten-year-old theoretical study, which connects one of the most fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics -- the ...

Charles H. Bennett and Gilles Brassard on the collaboration that led them to the 2025 ACM A.M. Turing Award.

Theories of quantum mechanics predict that some particles can exist in superpositions, which essentially means that they can ...

In July 1925, physicist Werner Heisenberg wrote a letter to Wolfgang Pauli sharing his new ideas about what would eventually become known as quantum theory. A hundred years later, that theory has been ...

Scientists have pulled off a mind-bending quantum experiment that sounds almost impossible: they showed that tiny metal ...

A mind-bending new theory has reignited one of humanity's oldest questions: are we really in control of our own lives?

Physicists have long suspected that there is a layer of physical reality beneath quantum theory and a new mathematical model unveils just how strange it might be ...
