A team at the University of Chicago has discovered a surprisingly simple way to create powerful quantum states that are normally difficult to produce. By making small adjustments to the energy levels ...

A breakthrough quantum physics experiment has revealed a startling result. Scientists measured “negative time” as photons ...

Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity. Now a new theoretical study pushes that weirdness into even stranger territory. It ...

Nuclear physicists used a little magic in their latest experiment conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...

What makes something quantum? This question has kept a small but dedicated fraction of the world's population—most of them quantum physicists—up at night for decades. At very small scales, we know the ...

The 2025 Nobel prize in Physics has been awarded to three scientists for the discovery of an effect that has applications in medical devices and quantum computing. John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John ...

Does quantum physics place limits on the extent to which we have free will? This long-debated question stems from the way different physicists interpret the mathematics of quantum theory, but now ...

In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle natures can’t be measured at the same time. Now, two ...
