A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept of quantum gravity does not exist. The idea comes from two London-based ...

In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism. Scientists had assumed that these two ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. In interesting research, insights from ordinary supermarket grapes led researchers to boost quantum sensor performance. The study ...

A team of physicists set out to test some of the most exciting claims in quantum computing—and found a very different story. Instead of confirming breakthroughs, their careful replication studies ...

Quantum mechanics tells us that a particle can never be perfectly still. But how precisely can it be oriented? A research ...

Scientists have used high-performance computing at large scales to analyze a quantum photonics experiment. In specific terms, this involved the tomographic reconstruction of experimental data from a ...

A team at ETH Zurich has built a quantum gate that swaps the states of two atoms with 99.91 percent accuracy, operating ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

A number of experiments have been proposed to generate and witness gravitational entanglement, but Aziz and Howl’s work suggests that the presence of gravitational entanglement is not a ‘smoking gun’ ...

A light pulse is technically empty, yet capable of carrying a trillion photons in a single burst. That is part of what makes ...

Cold atom experiments trap atoms to probe quantum effects, enabling ultra-precise sensing, timekeeping, and monitoring of Earth and space phenomena. (Nanowerk News) Cold atom experiments are among the ...

The Wisconsin Union Directorate welcomed renowned quantum physicist John Martinis to Shannon Hall on March 23 as part of the ...
