Measuring the world precisely is much harder than it sounds. At very small scales, ...

Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still daring to test it. Some theories of quantum gravity suggest light might ...

A team of physicists has reimagined one of science’s most iconic experiments—but in the dimension of time. Researchers at Imperial College London have taken the classic double-slit test and turned it ...

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

Quantum materials can behave in surprising ways when many tiny spins act together, producing effects that don’t exist in ...

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

Let me tell you about my book "Fields and Their Quanta: Making Sense of Quantum Foundations," published last year by Springer. It's technical, but I'll describe it in English. Scientists agree the ...

At TU Wien, researchers have discovered a state in a quantum material that had previously been considered impossible. The ...

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...
