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 ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

A new kind of mirror is emerging from quantum physics labs, one that exists not as a chunk of polished glass but as a ...

Controlling light is an important technological challenge—not just at the large scale of optics in microscopes and telescopes ...

Researchers at Google have used their Willow quantum computer to demonstrate that "quantum contextuality" may be a crucial ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

Photonic says it’s trying to build the world’s first highly scalable fault-tolerant quantum computer. It’s doing so with a ...

Quantum computing is a complex marriage of math, physics and IT that will take society’s achievements to amazing new levels.

A new study in Nature Physics has turned an old problem on its head by reporting a way to use the noisy interactions between ...

Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the security of modern encryption. Any clever trick for solving them ...
