From subatomic particles to complex molecules, quantum systems hold the key to understanding how the universe works. But there's a catch: when you try to model these systems, that complexity ...

Researchers in China say they've used a quantum computer to break RSA encryption. But that doesn't necessarily mean your emails or WhatsApp messages will be intercepted anytime soon. Encryption is ...

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

The principles of quantum mechanics represent the fundamental nature of reality—but a reality that is different from what we see in our everyday experience. We are accustomed to objects that ...

HOLYOKE – The Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center and its Boston-based partner, QuEra Computing, plan to build a $16 million quantum computing complex in Holyoke over the next ...

Quantum technologies hold great promise for aiding national defence, by sharpening how countries collect data, analyse intelligence, communicate and develop materials and weapons. For instance ...

Quantum entanglement is one seriously long-distance relationship. Quantum entanglement is a fascinating, counterintuitive phenomenon where two subatomic particles remain deeply connected, even if ...

Quantum computing is a next-generation technology that exploits the principles of quantum mechanics to execute complex calculations exponentially faster than traditional computers. Contrary to ...

If the universe isn’t locally real, that has implications for what’s possible through quantum phenomena. For over 100 years now, quantum mechanics has rattled the cage of everything we’ve ...
