Quantum physics didn’t set out to explain the mind. It set out to explain matter. And yet, the deeper scientists went into ...

Quantum experiments keep stripping away our everyday intuitions, replacing them with a picture of reality in which cause, effect and even “facts” depend on how we look. New tests of entanglement, ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...

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

This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to UNESCO, marking 100 years since quantum mechanics was proposed. The theory hardly needed the extra publicity, though ...

Carriers of information come in different forms and behave differently. Think of ink on newspapers, sound waves in classrooms and pixels on TV, monitors and smartphones. Think of tiny transistors on ...

What if the impossible became routine? Imagine solving a problem so complex it would take a classical computer 20 million years to crack, now imagine doing it in just 15 minutes. That’s exactly what ...
