A team led by physicists at Washington University in St. Louis has created quantum sensors that can survive in extreme conditions. Built inside unbreakable sheets of crystallized boron nitride, the ...

The world of quantum physics is already mysterious, but what happens when that strange realm of subatomic particles is put ...

An exotic phase of matter has been realized on a quantum processor. Matter can exist in different forms, or phases, such as liquid water or solid ice. These phases are usually understood under ...

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

The mere mention of “quantum consciousness” makes most physicists cringe, as the phrase seems to evoke the vague, insipid musings of a New Age guru. But if a new hypothesis proves to be correct, ...

In the everyday world that humans experience, objects behave in a predictable way, explained by classical physics. One of the important aspects of classical physics is that nothing, not even ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered ...

A silent symphony is playing inside your brain right now as neurological pathways synchronize in an electromagnetic chorus that's thought to give rise to consciousness. Yet how various circuits ...

Did you know that China has invested over $15 billion in quantum computing research? This staggering figure highlights the intense global competition to lead in this groundbreaking technology. Quantum ...

Four decades ago, physicists were theorizing that the mind-bending mechanics of quantum physics could be harnessed to make a new kind of computer that’s exponentially more powerful than conventional ...

DURHAM, N.C. (WTVD) -- Duke researchers are spearheading an effort to build one of the largest quantum computers in academia that some say can be a game-changer in science and technology. "It's an ...
