Imaginary numbers, also called complex numbers, are used in real-life applications, such as electricity, as well as quadratic equations.

Imaginary numbers could play a more important role in describing reality than we thought.

Imaginary numbers may seem abstract or even whimsical at first, but they are far from being mere mathematical curiosities. In fact, they are a natural extension of our number system, leading to a ...

A real quantum theory, with no imaginary numbers, would predict different results than standard quantum physics, allowing the experiment to distinguish which one is correct.

The imaginary numbers weren't describing some bizarre microwave daydream, but rather a tiny shift in the carrier wave's frequency as it passes through a material thanks to the way the transmitted ...
