Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

A century ago, a group of scientists in Europe began developing a theory to explain how the world’s smallest particles interact. Their discoveries underpinned a new branch of physics and laid the ...

Did you know that China has invested over $15 billion in quantum computing research? This staggering figure highlights the intense global competition to lead in this groundbreaking technology. Quantum ...

What if the impossible became routine? Imagine solving a problem so complex it would take a classical computer 20 million years to crack, now imagine doing it in just 15 minutes. That’s exactly what ...

Four decades ago, physicists were theorizing that the mind-bending mechanics of quantum physics could be harnessed to make a new kind of computer that’s exponentially more powerful than conventional ...
