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

An international team of scientists from IBM, The University of Manchester, Oxford University, ETH Zurich, EPFL and the ...

A long-standing challenge in physics has been to integrate gravity into the Standard Model, which successfully describes the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces. The difficulty lies in the ...

For close to a century, scientists have been trying to marry Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and quantum theory—our two best bets on understanding the universe on a macroscopic and ...

An international group of researchers have investigated the role of memory in quantum systems and dynamics. Their findings ...

This breathtaking clue about the architecture of consciousness supports a Nobel-Prize winner’s theory about how quantum ...

Scientists at the Institute of Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have directly ...

Forgetting feels like a failure of attention, but physics treats it as a fundamental process with a measurable price. At the smallest scales, erasing information is not free, it consumes energy and ...

Looming behind Regenstein Library is a bronze, mushroom cloud–shaped sculpture—Henry Moore’s Nuclear Energy. Installed in 1967, it now seems like an inconspicuous part of the campus landscape. In ...

Quantum effects are no longer confined to ultra-cold chips and vacuum chambers. For the first time, researchers are deliberately engineering living cells so that they behave like quantum bits, hinting ...
