Face it, a lot of what you think you know is based on what you remember, and what you remember can be very wrong. But that’s ...

For several years now, scientists have been using lasers to control the properties of matter at extremely fast rates: during one optical cycle of a light wave. But because these changes occur on the ...

Instantly turning a material from opaque to transparent, or from a conductor to an insulator, is no longer the stuff of ...

Researchers have achieved a remarkable result: capturing and studying phase changes in quantum hardware, which hold hold promise for next-generation technologies like quantum computing and ...

Today, physicists are still asking themselves whether quantum mechanics needs hypercomplex numbers. FAU researchers Ece Ipek ...

Ask almost any physicist what the most frustrating problem is in modern-day physics, and they will likely say the discrepancy between general relativity and quantum mechanics. That discrepancy has ...

Quantum entanglement is a fundamental phenomenon in nature and one of the most intriguing aspects of quantum mechanics. It describes a correlation between two particles, such that measuring the ...

The relationship between quantum mechanics and classical physics has baffled scientists for decades. In the quantum world, ...

Physicists in Japan have developed streamlined formulas to measure quantum entanglement, revealing surprising quantum ...

This study makes the fundamental discovery of the first natural animal rhodopsin that uses a chloride ion instead of an amino acid side chain as a counterion. Using a combination of biochemical and ...

Investors have been looking beyond the "Magnificent Seven" stocks for opportunities in quantum computing. Whenever a new megatrend emerges, it is not uncommon for small, previously little-known ...
