Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr had an ongoing rivalry about the true nature of quantum mechanics, and came up with a thought ...

Scientists are using anesthesia to probe the quantum roots of consciousness—and the research offers tantalizing evidence.

Reliably quantifying and characterizing the quantum states of various systems is highly advantageous for both quantum physics ...

Quantum physics has a reputation for needing exotic hardware, from liquid-helium-cooled qubits to sprawling AI clusters, just ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. A new discovery suggests ...

Physicists have long suspected that gravity might have a hidden quantum side, but for decades the idea has been more ...

The new experiment demonstrated a bizarre quantum effect from the double-slit experiment at an unprecedented scale. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.

This year's physics Nobel Prize was awarded for quantum physics experiments investigating "entangled quantum states." These are situations in which a pair of microscopic particles behave like a single ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

Scientists at the University of Chicago have detected the first evidence of a phenomenon called “quantum superchemistry.” Long predicted but never confirmed, this effect could speed up chemical ...

A real mind-melter: Quantum mechanics is strange, but even for a field of science that regularly defies our conventional understanding of reality, the latest discovery is particularly baffling.

Tests of quantum weirdness and its potential real-world applications have been recognized with the 2022 Nobel Prize in physics. At some level we are all subject to quantum rules that even Albert ...
