Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard were recognized for their foundational work in quantum information science.

A new room-temperature quantum device developed at Stanford uses twisted light and advanced materials to link photons and electrons. Modern quantum computers are typically large, costly systems that ...

In new research published in Physical Review X, scientists have designed quantum control protocols that generate processes ...

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 ...

What if the flow of time isn’t as one-way as it seems? Researchers from the University of Surrey have uncovered evidence that in the strange world of quantum physics, time could theoretically run both ...

The International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ) aims to expand public understanding of quantum technologies, including their transformative potential. For our broad readership, could ...

A quantum computer has reached new heights. The first quantum computer in space is now orbiting Earth on a satellite, scientists report. Launched on June 23, the computer had to be designed to fit in ...

For more than a century, gravity and quantum physics have stubbornly resisted a common language, one describing the smooth curvature of spacetime, the other the jittery statistics of particles and ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...

The reference frames from which observers view quantum events can themselves have multiple possible locations at once — an insight with potentially major ramifications. Imagine standing on a railway ...
