In a breakthrough for antimatter research, the BASE collaboration at CERN has kept an antiproton—the antimatter counterpart of a proton—oscillating smoothly between two different quantum states for ...

Scientists have developed a new way to read the hidden states of Majorana qubits, which store information in paired quantum modes that resist noise. The results confirm their protected nature and show ...

Quantum systems are known to be prone to dissipation, a process that entails the irreversible loss of energy and that is typically linked to decoherence. Decoherence, or the loss of coherence, occurs ...

In the late 1970s, legendary physicist John Wheeler proposed a radical question: Exactly when does the universe notice that we're paying attention to a quantum experiment? And does it really matter?

Quantum gravity is the missing link between general relativity and quantum mechanics, the yet-to-be-discovered key to a unified theory capable of explaining both the infinitely large and the ...

Looming behind Regenstein Library is a bronze, mushroom cloud–shaped sculpture—Henry Moore’s Nuclear Energy. Installed in 1967, it now seems like an inconspicuous part of the campus landscape. In ...
