Quantum mechanics has always had a way of making even the sharpest minds stop and scratch their heads. In the everyday world, you expect objects to follow straightforward rules. A ball thrown into the ...

A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, creating a single particle of light that behaves as if it occupies 37 distinct ...

Viruses exist at the boundary between living and non-living matter, while skin is a living interface between physics and ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) paradox describes how quantum theory cannot be described by local realistic descriptions. A ...

A recent experiment at Fermilab has delivered intriguing results that challenge standard predictions, adding fuel to the ongoing quest for quantum gravity. These findings, which involve the behavior ...

That quantum mechanics is a successful theory is not in dispute. It makes astonishingly accurate predictions about the nature of the world at microscopic scales. What has been in dispute for nearly a ...

Breaking the time asymmetry remains a fundamental yet tantalizing scientific challenge. At the macroscopic level the quest has so far turned out to be fruitless, but on the other hand in the subatomic ...
