Even given a set of possible quantum states for our cosmos, it's impossible for us to determine which one of them is correct ...

Researchers have found duality can reveal hidden non-invertible symmetry protected topological phases, unlocking new quantum phases.

A new proposal makes the case that paraparticles — a new category of quantum particle — could be created in exotic materials. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

Scientists have uncovered a previously unthinkable state of matter that challenges decades of assumptions ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

Photo of the experimental setup to couple MWs to N- 𝑉⁢s using grape dimers. A stripped optical fiber with N- 𝑉 spins, cantilevered from a rod, lies between two grapes. The grapes were positioned on ...

Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

John von Neumann came about as close as humanly possible to embodying the Platonic ideal of a genius. Conversant in ancient Greek by age 6, the Hungarian made significant mathematical advances in his ...
