In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of modern quantum mechanics, a survey asked 1,101 physicists for their takes on ...

But researchers still disagree widely on how best to describe the physical reality that lies behind the mathematics, as a ...

Nature survey shows that disagreement about the meaning of quantum physics remains strong, even 100 years in. And that’s OK.

Astrophysicist Paul Sutter explains Quantum Mechanics - the body of scientific laws that describe the wacky behavior of ...

It’s the weirdest thing: quantum theory works incredibly well in practice. It powers devices ranging from MRI machines to lasers and the very computer you’re reading this on. But even after 100 years, ...

Einstein and Bohr would have never thought that this is possible, to perform such an experiment with single atoms and single ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Technology Quantum computers are surprisingly random – but that's a good thing While randomising a deck of cards gets more difficult as you add more cards, it turns out that the same isn't true ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in physics." The first step toward quantum gravity, the "holy grail of physics ...

Unless you're a physicist, you've probably only encountered quantum mechanics on TV.And even when it was explained, you might've still been a little confused.The field of quantum mechanics was ...
