The answer, it turns out, is yes. In a breakthrough experiment, scientists have observed signs of anyons in a one-dimensional ...

He and Sir Roger Penrose, a mathematical physicist at the Mathematical Institute and University of Oxford, propose that overall brain function derives from quantum level microtubule vibrations.

For years, scientists have theorized that some black holes could actually be wormholes, and a new study shows that this space-time mimicry could in fact be possible.

A new platform for engineering chiral electron pathways offers potential fresh insights into a quantum phenomenon discovered by chemists—and exemplifies how the second quantum revolution is fostering ...

The world’s strangest trampoline doesn’t bounce—it swings sideways and even glides around corners. But no one can jump on it, ...

In order to determine the spectral characteristics of the material (for example, the chemical composition at each point), we ...

A ‘topoconductor’ is a brand-new type of material that Microsoft created. It helps keep the quantum information safe from ...

Unlike traditional quantum computers, which are fragile and susceptible to environmental interference, topological quantum devices could be inherently fault tolerant, a requirement for practical ...

Shor’s Algorithm is a special trick for quantum computers. It’s like a super-fast calculator that can find the factors of ...
