A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and ...

In classical physics, memory is defined in a straightforward way. If a system’s future behavior depends only on its current condition, it is considered memoryless. If earlier states continue to ...

Light does not “think” in any human sense. Still, under the right conditions, it can behave in a way that looks uncannily ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...

Quantum computers work by applying quantum operations, such as quantum gates, to delicate quantum states. Ideally, quantum ...

Physicists at TU Wien have created an ultracold quantum gas where both energy and mass flow without any measurable loss, a result that defies the standard expectation that interacting quantum systems ...
