Quantum computers work by applying quantum operations, such as quantum gates, to delicate quantum states. Ideally, quantum ...

Researchers at the University of Innsbruck, together with partners from Sydney and Waterloo, have presented a new diagnostic ...

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

Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

Quantum physics keeps challenging our intuition. Researchers have shown that joint measurements can be carried out on distant particles, without the need to bring them together. This breakthrough ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Caltech president and pioneering physicist Thomas Rosenbaum, an expert in the promising field of quantum physics, will join Purdue University President Mung Chiang in April for ...

Although the basic idea of quantum physics dates back to the earliest years of the twentieth century, it wasn’t until 1925, on the German island of Heligoland, that Werner Heisenberg had the ...

IBM unveiled what it calls the first integrated quantum computing system for commercial use. 1. Quantum computing is meant to help researchers investigate problems that are too complex for classical ...

While the basic form of QKD enables information to be transmitted securely, it does have some weak points. One of them is ...
