The force we experience most intimately remains the most mysterious. Physicists understand how vast migrations of particles called photons light up our homes, and how swarms of “gluon” particles hold ...

In a landmark development under the National Quantum Mission (NQM) of the Department of Science & Technology (DST), the P-Quest research group at Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) has ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. A new discovery suggests ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

I have long been fascinated by the strong attraction many people feel toward quantum field theory as a way to explain extraordinary experiences. As a psychiatrist interested in coincidences and the ...

Prize awarded for developing 'next generation of quantum technology' 'I'm completely stunned,' says UC Berkeley professor Quantum technology ubiquitous in everyday electronics Physics is second prize ...

The 2025 Nobel prize in physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis for their work on showing how quantum particles can mysteriously tunnel through matter, a process that ...

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...

Quantum entanglement is incredibly difficult to understand, even scientists, but a new study shows it follows the same basic playbook no matter how many dimensions you consider. The authors used a ...

Thinking about quantum physics can feel a bit much, right? It’s like trying to understand how a magic trick works, but way more complicated. But honestly, it’s not as scary as it sounds. There are ...
