Scientists say they’ve cracked a key challenge in scalable quantum hardware after generating an error-correcting, light-based qubit on a chip for the first time.

Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, have developed a tunable system that paves the way for ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Part of our International Year of Quantum Science and Technology coverage More than 300 top quantum physicists gathered ...

Artificial intelligence has already transformed how we innovate, predict, and compete. Quantum computing promises to do the ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

Discovery of 257Sg and its K-isomer reveals new insights into superheavy element fission and quantum stability mechanisms.

Sally Shrapnel had been a GP for more than two decades when she decided to pursue her childhood dream of becoming a full-time ...

Physicists tested the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) paradox, which is at the heart of quantum theory, to measure light ...

A physicist proposes that time has three dimensions instead of one, which could finally unite quantum mechanics and ...

In quantum physics, “spin” isn’t about rotation, but about the magnetic personality of particles. You can think of each one like a tiny magnet with an arrow pointing in a certain direction.

Scientists at UBC have devised a chip-based device that acts as a "universal translator" for quantum computers, converting delicate microwave signals to optical ones and back with minimal loss and ...
