Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...
A rewarding book that offers a cogent look at the science’s history and the second quantum revolution that’s under way ...
Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
Is the electron a wave or a particle? Are the orbits of electrons in atoms similar to planetary orbits? What is the nature of light? Such were the questions that physicists were struggling with in the ...
The nature of quantum entanglement remains an outstanding problem in physics. But Albert Einstein's theories, along with insights from quantum computing, could finally put the mystery to rest. When ...
The pioneer of quantum computing talks about how Albert Einstein would have reacted to his experiments, the hype around the ...
It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...
In the 1920s, when quantum mechanics was young, physicists Jane Dewey and Laura Chalk performed some of the first experimental tests of the theory, based on a phenomenon called the Stark effect. Later ...
On the morning of June 28, 1914, a Bosnian Serb student named Gavrilo Princip stood outside Moritz Schiller’s delicatessen near the Latin Bridge in Sarajevo. Sometime after 10:45 A.M., a motorcade ...
A new study in Nature Physics has turned an old problem on its head by reporting a way to use the noisy interactions between ...
