Wormholes have long served as science fiction’s favorite shortcut through the cosmos, but a growing body of theoretical physics research suggests they will never function as tunnels. That does not ...

Physicists are rethinking time itself. Long treated as a basic part of the universe, time may instead be an illusion—a side effect of quantum entanglement. A new study challenges the traditional idea ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery ...

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made a significant discovery regarding quantum entanglement. This phenomenon, which has long been viewed as a ...

Researchers use rare-earth ions to achieve the first-ever demonstration of entanglement multiplexing between individual memory qubits in a quantum network. Laying the groundwork for quantum ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

The unveiling by IBM of two new quantum supercomputers and Denmark's plans to develop "the world's most powerful commercial quantum computer" mark just two of the latest developments in quantum ...
