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

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could soon outperform classical computers on some complex computational problems. These computers rely on ...

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

Quantum effects are fundamental in shaping the behaviour of molecular systems, from modifying reaction pathways to influencing physical properties. At the molecular scale, classical theories are often ...

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

Scientists have shown that Barkhausen noise can be produced not only through traditional, or classical means, but through quantum mechanical effects. The research represents an advance in fundamental ...

Using a clever laser technique, scientists have squished pairs of atoms closer together than ever before, revealing some truly mind-boggling quantum effects. When you purchase through links on our ...

Image: a scanning electron microscope micrograph of a strongly crumpled graphene sheet on a silicon wafer. The lateral size of the image is 20 microns. TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Using the highest magnetic ...

For the first time, scientists have observed the iconic Shapiro steps, a staircase-like quantum effect, in ultracold atoms.

In 1965, British mathematician Roger Penrose proposed the cosmic censorship conjecture, a concept that suggests that singularities — regions where gravity is so strong that the fabric of spacetime ...
