Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one.

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Quantum mechanical effects are known to be easily disrupted by disturbances from the surrounding environment, commonly referred to as noise. To minimize these disturbances, physicists often study ...

A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution.

The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum computer: The realization of a novel type of quantum logic gate makes it ...

Physicists have forced light to behave like electrons trapped in a magnetic field, reproducing the quantum Hall effect with photons for the first time. The experiment, carried out on an optical fiber ...

A new room-temperature quantum device developed at Stanford uses twisted light and advanced materials to link photons and ...

Theoretical physicists collaborate with OpenAI's artificial intelligence to solve complex calculations involving gluons and gravitons in quantum physics research.

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have produced experimental evidence that quantum-level effects can alter the ...

The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than ...
