The famous double-slit experiment brings into question the very nature of matter. Its cousin, the quantum eraser experiment, makes us question the very existence of time – and how much we can manipula ...

Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...

One hundred years ago on a quiet, rocky island, German physicist Werner Heisenberg helped set in motion a series of scientific developments that would touch nearly all of physics. There, Heisenberg ...

Physicists have struggled to understand the nature of time since the field began. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Time may not be ...

In this video, we explore the meaning of quantum physics and the true nature of reality through key concepts in quantum mechanics, including: - The "language" gap of quantum mechanics - The ...

The quantum world has a reputation for being elusive, but physicists are now starting to watch it unfold in real time. For ...

Within our comfortable world of causality we expect that reactions always follow an action and not vice versa. This why the recent chatter in the media about researchers having discovered ‘negative ...

Everyone has their favourite example of a trick that reliably gets a certain job done, even if they don’t really understand why. Back in the day, it might have been slapping the top of your television ...

Three quantum researchers were presented with the Nobel Prize in Stockholm on 10 December. Meanwhile, this year marked the ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

Quantum computing is challenging everything we thought we knew about technology, time, and even human consciousness. Some scientists theorize that some of the ways quantum computers process ...
