A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has ...

Quantum mechanics has always carried a quiet tension. At its core, the theory allows particles to exist in many states at ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

An old puzzle in particle physics has been solved: How can quantum field theories be best formulated on a lattice to ...

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold new line of research now argues that gravity is not fundamental at all, ...

Mind = blown.

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

Quantum computing is slowly entering the mainstream, as more people discuss the technology and its potential within ...
