Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama themselves. A new theoretical framework now flips that script, treating space ...

Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called ...

The entangled clocks can test how quantum theory behaves in the presence of curved space-time as predicted by Einstein, or whether our current theories break down. Hoboken, N.J., July 14, 2025 — ...

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of gravity, which explains the behavior of stars, planets, and the structure of the ...

An international team of researchers has forced light to replicate the quantum Hall effect, a Nobel Prize–winning phenomenon that, until now, belonged almost exclusively to electrons moving through ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space and time has remained fundamentally disconnected. Relativity unifies space ...

Quantum mechanics is our most successful physical theory. Created to account for atomic phenomena, it has a vast range of applications extending well beyond the atomic realm, from predicting the ...

Hoboken, N.J., July 14, 2025 — Quantum networking is being rapidly developed world-wide. It is a key quantum technology that will enable a global quantum internet: the ability to deploy secure ...
