A quantum internet is only as useful as its reach, and in a first, researchers created more than a million qubit pairs across ...

Scientists have just created a new, strange type of molecule. It’s made of a bunch of atoms bound together in a ring, like ...

The parity-identification problem fits naturally into this landscape. Parity is a global property, insensitive to most local details. In this respect, it resembles many other quantities studied in ...

Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Oct. 7 (UPI) --Three U.S.-based scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics for their work in quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale, the Nobel Foundation announced Tuesday. The Royal Swedish Academy ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone of technologies that shape our lives, from lasers and microchips to quantum ...

Liminals by artist Pierre Huyghe (pictured) reminds us how gut-wrenching the ideas remain. Situated in Halle am Berghain, the former East Berlin power station and home of the famous techno club, the ...

For centuries, the concept of consciousness has intrigued philosophers and scientists alike. Often deemed too abstract for scientific exploration, consciousness has been largely left to philosophical ...

The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to a team of scientists based in the U.S. for their landmark discovery in quantum mechanics. John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis were handed ...

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 ...
