A team of physicists say they have found a way to sidestep Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, one of the more troublesome ...

Researchers have developed an AI system that learns about the world via videos and demonstrates a notion of “surprise” when ...

What if the universe remembers? A bold new framework proposes that spacetime acts as a quantum memory. For over a hundred ...

Physicist Arvind Murugan earns Schmidt Science Polymath award for work at intersection of physics, biology, computation and materials science ...

One often-repeated example illustrates the mind-boggling potential of quantum computing: A machine with 300 quantum bits ...

Until now, holograms have been created using lasers, but now researchers have used a new ensemble of components that could ...

Usually, an ambigram takes me about an hour from the moment of tackling the challenge with crude pencil sketches until the ...

Virtual particles exploit the natural fuzziness of the subatomic world, where if these ephemeral particles live briefly enough, they can also briefly borrow their energy from empty space. The haziness ...

Bloch oscillations are periodic oscillations of quantum particles in a repeating energy "landscape" (e.g., a crystal lattice) that are subjected to a constant force. These particle motions have been ...

For decades, quantum computing has felt like something out of science fiction — abstract, theoretical, and always “10 years ...

After discussing the emergence of nuclear physics, Close goes on to talk about the Allies’ development of the nuclear bomb. A key figure in this history was Enrico Fermi, who abandoned Fascist Italy ...
