A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

An international team of researchers has forced light to replicate the quantum Hall effect, a Nobel Prize–winning phenomenon ...

Repulsive gravity at the quantum scale would have flattened out inhomogeneities in the early universe First light The cosmic microwave background, as imaged by the European Space Agency’s Planck ...

Quantum cosmology and loop quantum gravity constitute two intertwined pillars in the quest for a quantum theory of gravity. Quantum cosmology applies the principles of quantum mechanics to the entire ...

Oracle-based quantum algorithms cannot use deep loops because quantum states exist only as mathematical amplitudes in Hilbert ...

What does the passage of time look like for a truly quantum object? The world’s best clocks may soon be able to answer this question, testing how time can stretch and shift in the quantum realm and ...

What if the flow of time isn’t as one-way as it seems? Researchers from the University of Surrey have uncovered evidence that in the strange world of quantum physics, time could theoretically run both ...

For decades, quantum physics and general relativity have stood as two powerful but separate theories. Quantum physics explains the behavior of tiny particles like atoms and photons. General relativity ...
