Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, ...
A paradox at the heart of quantum physics has been tested in an extraordinary fashion, pushing the boundaries of human intuition beyond breaking point by measuring a pulse of light in 37 dimensions.
Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...
A team of physicists affiliated with multiple institutions in China has measured a pulse of light in 37 dimensions. In their paper published in Science Advances, the group explains that their ...
Theoretical physicists develop mathematical models to describe material systems, which they can then use to make predictions about how materials will behave. One of the most important models is the ...
Physicist Paul Davies’s Quantum 2.0: The past, present and future of quantum physics ends on a beautiful note. “To be aware of the quantum world is to glimpse something of the majesty and elegance of ...
Sept. 7 - “The Quantum Physics of Climate Change,” with Brad Marston, Brown University An unlikely partnership between a theoretical physicist and a horror filmmaker has produced a surprising result: ...
Princeton physicists have discovered an abrupt change in quantum behavior while experimenting with a three-atom-thin insulator that can be easily switched into a superconductor. The research promises ...
Researchers at TU Wien have developed a one-dimensional “quantum wire” using a gas of ultracold atoms. In this system, both ...
The idea of synthetic dimensions is to use non-spatial degrees of freedom as dimensions to realize and study models of interest in high dimensions using low dimensional setups. Of particular interest ...
