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 ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

Ripples spreading across a calm lake after raindrops fall—and the way ripples from different drops overlap and travel outward ...

And then it got me.” A handful of decades and an MIT physics doctorate later, Tan is the chief science officer (CSO) of ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

This year, quantum science and computing came up a lot. There have been broad claims that quantum science and engineering could one day help cure diseases, design new materials, optimize supply chains ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...
