MIT physicists have taken the first-ever direct images of individual atoms interacting freely in space. Their findings, published in the journal Physical Review Letters, reveal hidden quantum ...

To capture higher-definition and sharper images of cosmological objects, astronomers sometimes combine the data collected by ...

The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum ...

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

Quantum physics may sound abstract, but Ph.D. candidates Kirsten Kanneworff and David Dechant show that quantum research can also be very concrete. Together, they are investigating how quantum ...

The nature of quantum entanglement remains an outstanding problem in physics. But Albert Einstein's theories, along with insights from quantum computing, could finally put the mystery to rest. When ...

For bringing quantum effects to a scale once thought impossible, three physicists have won the 2025 Nobel Prize in physics. In the 1980s, John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis demonstrated the ...

What if the flow of time isn’t as one-way as it seems? Researchers from the University of Surrey have uncovered evidence that in the strange world of quantum physics, time could theoretically run both ...

Even if you’ve never set foot inside a physics classroom, you probably have a pretty solid grasp of the laws governing how objects move and behave. Throw a basketball against a wall and it bounces off ...
