A new experiment using Google’s Sycamore quantum processor has taken a bold step toward testing ideas from quantum gravity. For the first time, researchers successfully sent quantum information ...
What does the passage of time look like for a truly quantum object? The world’s best clocks may soon be able to answer this question, testing how time can stretch and shift in the quantum realm and ...
Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space and time has remained fundamentally disconnected. Relativity unifies space ...
Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only ...
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 ...
Physicist Paul Davies’s Quantum 2.0: The past, present and future of quantum physics ends on a beautiful note. “To be aware of the quantum world is to glimpse something of the majesty and elegance of ...
