Quantum mechanics has always carried a quiet tension. At its core, the theory allows particles to exist in many states at ...
At TU Wien, researchers have discovered a state in a quantum material that had previously been considered impossible. The ...
In the strange and fascinating world of quantum mechanics, particles have long been sorted into just two types: fermions and bosons. These labels help explain how matter forms and how forces work.
By bringing the long-standing and opposing views of quantum mechanics together to form a single cohesive theory, a research ...
A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...
Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...
Simmons says that silicon quantum processors offer an inherent advantage in scaling, too. Generating numerous registers on a ...
Physicists at the University of Stuttgart, Germany have teleported a quantum state between photons generated by two different ...
Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
ANAHEIM, CALIF. — At the world’s largest gathering of physicists, a talk about Microsoft’s claimed new type of quantum computing chip was perhaps the main attraction. Before the talk, the chair of the ...
The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. On a quiet pandemic afternoon in 2021, Zhiyuan Wang, then a graduate student at Rice University, was alleviating his boredom by working ...
