Are the mysteries of quantum mechanics finally starting to crack, or are we just getting better at asking sharper questions? Since the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics honored experiments on quantum ...

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery ...

The Pauli exclusion principle is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of particle physics and is essential for the structure and stability of matter. Now an international collaboration of physicists ...

Viruses exist at the boundary between living and non-living matter, while skin is a living interface between physics and ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

Physicists at Heidelberg University have developed a new theory that finally unites two long-standing and seemingly ...

Two African science journalists – Paul Adepoju and Mkhululi Chimoio – have won the “ Quantum Pitch Competition ”, organized by Physics World and Physics Magazine to mark the International Year of ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

A real mind-melter: Quantum mechanics is strange, but even for a field of science that regularly defies our conventional understanding of reality, the latest discovery is particularly baffling.

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...
