When you toss a coin, you put it into a higher-energy state until it falls back down again. It can then end up in one of two ...

U.S. government contractor Q-CTRL told Newsweek its quantum sensors would be deployed later this year as GPS jamming ...

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

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one.

Physicists have produced experimental evidence that anyons, exotic quasiparticles long thought to exist only in ...

A new computational simulation of the early universe has revealed a fundamental, unbreakable geometric limit to the fabric of spacetime, dubbed the "Metric Wall." Discovered by independent physics ...

A pair of photons enters an optical maze, and sometimes they leave as something new. Not new in the everyday sense, since both were still photons when they came out.

While the basic form of QKD enables information to be transmitted securely, it does have some weak points. One of them is that a malicious third party could steal the key by hacking the devices the ...

In chemistry, molecules with a "flat" geometry are often stable enough to support a wide range of reactions. But in the quantum world, that's not technically true.

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

Both silicon spin qubits and electrons-on-helium platforms approaches are promising for semiconductor CMOS-compatible quantum computing: silicon spin qubits use electrons in silicon and can be made ...

A new class of quantum-engineered photocatalytic material can split ordinary water into clean hydrogen fuel using nothing but ...
