John Martinis has already revolutionised quantum computing twice. Now, he is working on another radical rethink of the ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and ...

The team have pushed the boundaries of quantum mechanics beyond what some thought possible. Now they want to go even further ...

The way time ticks forward in our universe has long stumped physicists. Now, a new set of tools from entangled atoms to black ...

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, are expected to outperform ...

After Enterprise fizzled out, a new film brought the world’s greatest sci-fi franchise back to life: Star Trek (2009), a ...

Silicon carbide is for photonic circuits and quantum devices. Atomic layer processing boosts SiC waveguides and resonators, improving performance.

Quantum technology is moving—albeit slowly—from theory to proof-of-concept in finance, and it may become one of the most disruptive forces in banking and fintech over the next decade.
