MIT physicists have performed an idealized version of one of the most famous experiments in quantum physics. Their findings ...

Physicists are rethinking time itself. Long treated as a basic part of the universe, time may instead be an illusion—a side ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics.

Over the last few decades, it seems that every classical piece of technology has gotten a quantum counterpart. Of course, ...

Quantum mechanics dates back to 1900, when Max Planck developed the idea of quantum states, but 1925 is being touted as its ...

If one were to think of this pulse as discrete quanta of photon particles, it’d seem to break causality, but as a wave function within quantum physics this is perfectly acceptable.

"It's an aspect of quantum mechanics that we didn't know about or, at least, we didn't appreciate before now." More information: Naiyuan J. Zhang et al, Excitons in the fractional quantum Hall ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in ...

Likewise, the first quantum revolution was no one-man show. ... Quantum mechanics works really well for a lot of things, but there’s still so much that we don’t understand. SN: ...
