A test using atomic clocks will watch superpositions ride Earth’s curved space-time and see if Einstein can play nice with ...

Researchers from Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology outline a strategy for using machine learning (ML) to address ...

Atoms are the building blocks of all matter, from the air we breathe to every cell in our bodies. Yet despite their presence everywhere, no one has truly seen an atom with the naked eye ,until ...

Instead of the big bang, some physicists have suggested that our universe may have come from a big bounce following another ...

The findings come from the first quantum-mechanical simulations of quasicrystals—a type of solid that scientists once thought couldn't exist.

Jun 13, 2025 First quantum-mechanical model of quasicrystals reveals why they exist Quasicrystals couldn't be simulated with quantum mechanics because of their irregular atomic patterns. A new method ...

The new book, Women in the History of Quantum Physics, spotlights the oft-forgotten contributions of women scientists in the field.

When a molecule absorbs light, it undergoes a whirlwind of quantum-mechanical transformations. Electrons jump between energy levels, atoms vibrate, and chemical bonds shift—all within millionths of a ...

The visual representation of divergence enables stakeholders to understand that quantum computing operates as a distinct computational model, different from classical computing speed improvements.
