The famous double-slit experiment brings into question the very nature of matter. Its cousin, the quantum eraser experiment, ...
Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr had an ongoing rivalry about the true nature of quantum mechanics, and came up with a thought ...
Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly ...
A boiling sea of quarks and gluons, including virtual ones—this is how we can imagine the main phase of high-energy proton ...
Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...
In the quantum world, the notion is that the present moment is influenced by the past, but it’s also influenced by the future ...
For a future quantum internet to work, scientists need to perfect a quantum repeater that can send information over long ...
Within our comfortable world of causality we expect that reactions always follow an action and not vice versa. This why the recent chatter in the media about researchers having discovered ‘negative ...
The evolution of quantum mechanics has continuously deepened our understanding of the microcosm, guiding researchers from the seminal formulation of the Schrödinger equation to more refined ...
One hundred years ago on a quiet, rocky island, German physicist Werner Heisenberg helped set in motion a series of scientific developments that would touch nearly all of physics. There, Heisenberg ...
