Physicists have produced experimental evidence that anyons, exotic quasiparticles long thought to exist only in ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one. In everyday ...

A new study has revealed how tiny imperfections and vibrations inside a promising quantum material could be used to control ...

Duplicating the information held in quantum computers was thought to be impossible thanks to the no-cloning theorem, but researchers have now found a workaround ...

An “echo” that arrives before you finish speaking sounds like a glitch. In quantum hardware, that kind of self-interference ...

In chemistry, molecules with a "flat" geometry are often stable enough to support a wide range of reactions. But in the quantum world, that's not technically true.

Researchers at the University of Tuebingen, working with an international team, have developed an artificial intelligence that designs entirely new, sometimes unusual, experiments in quantum physics ...

Quantonation Ventures, a venture firm investing in quantum and physics-based startups, has closed its oversubscribed second ...

A new computational simulation of the early universe has revealed a fundamental, unbreakable geometric limit to the fabric of spacetime, dubbed the "Metric Wall." Discovered by independent physics ...

Both silicon spin qubits and electrons-on-helium platforms approaches are promising for semiconductor CMOS-compatible quantum computing: silicon spin qubits use electrons in silicon and can be made ...
