Quantum mechanics is weird. When you think you have reached the bottom of its weirdness, you always discover a new ...

Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...

Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be determined by examining the state ...

For many of us, advanced physics can be tough to understand to begin with, which makes it all the more impressive whenever someone earns a Nobel Prize for advancing the field even further. The latest ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further.

Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths generalize the familiar trajectories predicted by Einstein’s general theory of ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily ...

STOCKHOLM — U.S.-based scientists John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for “experiments that revealed quantum physics in action,” paving the way for the ...

In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence ...

Human behaviour is an enigma that fascinates many scientists. And there has been much discussion over the role of probability in explaining how our minds work.Probability is a mathematical framework d ...

The investigation into quantum mechanics and identity in physics explores the profound implications of particle indistinguishability and the emergence of distinct identities from fundamentally ...
