Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of gravity, which explains the behavior of stars, planets, and the structure of the ...

This week, CERN announced that it has detected a new particle at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) called the Xi-cc-plus. It's ...

For the first time, a quantum radiation reaction in strong electromagnetic fields has been demonstrated experimentally by ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one. In everyday three-dimensional space, that swap only comes in two flavors. Either the ...

In new research published in Physical Review X, scientists have designed quantum control protocols that generate processes ...

Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China have demonstrated that quantum entanglement between pairs of atomic defects in diamond can sharpen nanoscale sensors well beyond ...

Laurent Simons, a 15-year-old Belgian researcher, has earned a PhD in quantum physics and says he plans to create ...

The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than ...

Students learn the core quantum concepts during this program, the nonprofit's CEO and founder said.

Explore 25 science experiments that defied the laws of physics, revealing mind-bending phenomena that challenge intuition.
