Electrons are influenced by a magnetic field display known as the quantum Hall effect (QHE), which helps scientists make hyper-accurate measurements. Now, scientists have observed a similar behavior ...

A team of physicists has designed quantum algorithms that can model one of the most elusive behaviors in nature: a photon ...

Quantum mechanics would allow the Universe to eventually tunnel to the lowest energy state, or the ‘true’ vacuum, and that process would result in a cataclysmic global event. (CREDIT: Professor Zlatko ...

Two of the forefathers of quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr, had a famous argument over whether light is a wave ...

Some quantum cryptographers want to find ways to keep messages secret even if the rules of quantum mechanics don’t hold. The ...

A team of researchers has developed a technique that makes high-dimensional quantum information encoded in light more practical and reliable. This advancement, published in Physical Review Letters, ...

Quantum physicists at the Australian National University (ANU) have achieved a major milestone by directly observing atoms ...

A Gravity Theory That Could Rewrite the Universe’s First Moments The first fraction of a second after the Big Bang has always posed a problem. Physics can describe a great deal about the universe ...

A team of physicists have detected "fake light" where no matter should exist. These virtual photons have been proven that ...

We flock to beaches for it, cats and other animals bask in it, the quality of photographs lives and dies by it, and a person’s mood (and vitamin D level) gets a boost from it. Although it has known ...

World Quantum Day spotlights the future of computing, and Ohio State is helping make Columbus a leader in quantum research, ...
