Quantum information theory is a field of study that examines how quantum technologies store and process information. Over the ...

Regardless of the answers, the era of entanglement under infinite book‐keeping is giving way to an era of entanglement under limited books, limited clocks and limited gates. And in this more realistic ...

Although the basic idea of quantum physics dates back to the earliest years of the twentieth century, it wasn’t until 1925, on the German island of Heligoland, that Werner Heisenberg had the ...

In this video, we explore the relationship between string theory and quantum field theory (QFT). QFT is a mathematical ...

A South Korean physicist has proposed a theoretical framework that could support the unification of quantum mechanics and the ...

Researchers have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that's compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in physics." When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

Every year, Santa Claus races around the globe in a matter of hours to bring presents to children all over the world.

Natalie Paquette spends her time thinking about how to grow an extra dimension. Start with little circles, scattered across every point in space and time—a curlicue dimension, looped back onto itself.
