Scientists have uncovered a surprising connection between quantum gravity and an exotic quantum state of matter that could ...

A strange metal can fit in your hand, yet still behave in ways that seem to belong to a far smaller world. In a new ...

A photon is supposed to be indivisible. It is a fundamental particle and the basic packet (or quantum) of light. It’s not ...

Quantum materials, materials with properties that are governed by the laws of quantum mechanics, have proved to be highly ...

This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the most promising applications of these machines here and see an illustrated field guide to qubits here. Inside a ...

These abilities enable their special feats of computing. Imagine that a classical computer solves a maze by trying one path ...

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that’s what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum ...

Quantum is fundamentally complex and can be very confusing, even to those in the field.  The vast majority of people are not ...

One hundred years ago on a quiet, rocky island, German physicist Werner Heisenberg helped set in motion a series of scientific developments that would touch nearly all of physics. There, Heisenberg ...
