Quantum mechanics looks at how things work at the atomic and subatomic levels, where particles behave in ways that seem ...

The Japanese singer-songwriter’s new album goes deep on their “fascination with science.” WIRED Japan took Hikaru Utada to visit the Large Hadron Collider to learn more.

For example, let's look at the case of quantum spin, a property of subatomic particles. For particles like electrons, the spin can be in one of two states, either up or down.

At the Palm Springs Art Museum, “Particles and Waves: Southern California Abstraction and Science, 1945-1990” takes good account of the general impact the postwar tech boom had on the region ...

There's a 100-year-old conundrum in physics that we're still yet to untangle, and it has to do with the very nature of space-time itself.

In the subatomic realm of electrons, protons and photons, things happen very differently. Indeed, these tiny particles have no use for Newton’s laws of physics, nor even many of Einstein’s.

Data from billions of proton collisions reveal that subatomic particles called W+ and W− bosons keep company with a photon. Data from billions of proton collisions reveal that subatomic ...

Scientists have used a first-of-its-kind technique to visualize two entangled light particles in real time — making them appear as a stunning quantum "yin-yang" symbol.
