A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

A survey of more than 1,000 physicists finds deep disagreements in what quantum theories mean in the real world ...

Quantum mechanics is extremely successful and extremely weird. Its weirdness has made it controversial. It doesn’t even try to do what we often think scientific theories must do: it doesn’t try to ...

One question, for instance, might be why can't we walk through walls? Atoms, which are the building blocks of matter, are ...

A new light-based method lets tiny quantum dots release perfectly controlled photons, opening doors to faster and cheaper ...

To honor the 100 th anniversary of quantum mechanics — a revolution in physics as profound as the theory of evolution was for biology — and all the technological wonders it has unleashed, the United ...

They can add a quantum battery to the entangled pair to store entanglement information, which could help improve the ...

“Second sound is the hallmark of superfluidity, but in ultracold gases so far you could only see it in this faint reflection of the density ripples that go along with it,” lead author Martin Zwierlein ...

Thus, some of us working in foundations of quantum mechanics, but not in quantum information theory per se, have not fully appreciated the foundational implications of principles like Information ...

A curious observer’s guide to quantum mechanics, pt 7: The quantum century Manipulating quantum devices has been like getting an intoxicating new superpower for society.
