Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...

Quantum cosmology seeks to apply quantum principles to the Universe as a whole, treating spacetime geometry and matter fields within a unified quantum framework. Central to this endeavour is the ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...

Scientists at the University of California, Riverside are making breakthroughs in understanding how quantum wave functions move across ultra-thin materials—research that could eventually improve solar ...

A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function ...

Scientists are unsure what drives wave function collapse in the quantum world, but according to some radical theories, gravity may play a role. Scientists determined that if those theories are true, ...

Fasten your seat belts and take off into the realm of multiple, maybe even infinite, worlds. Professor Carroll explains how quantum mechanics predicts the existence of a large number of universes ...
