AI-generated impression of a nanosphere levitated in an optical tweezer inside an optical cavity, where its motion becomes entangled with light. (Francesco Marin/OpenAI) A new window into the quantum ...

While we're far away from beaming around like 'Star Trek,' innovation of communications technology has become the closest ...

Quantum communication networks consist of several connected nodes that exchange information encoded in quantum states. These ...

Quantum systems hold the promise of tackling some complex problems faster and more efficiently than classical computers. Despite their potential, so far only a limited number of studies have ...

Nobel prizewinner Alain Aspect’s ‘crackpot’ studies of quantum entanglement have explored the tricks reality plays on us — and built on ideas from a physics great. Einstein and the Quantum Revolutions ...

Nothing in science can be achieved or understood without measurement. Today, thanks to advances in quantum sensing, scientists can measure things that were once impossible to even imagine: vibrations ...

Chapters: 0:00 Why do we need Quantum Mechanics? 2:23 What's "weird" about QM? 4:07 What is the Measurement Problem? 6:29 ...

Higgs decays have exposed quantum connections between massive particles that vanish almost as soon as they are created.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Nearly a century ago, the physicist Erwin Schrödinger called attention to a quirk of the quantum world that has fascinated and vexed ...

Adiabatic quantum computing An example problem represented by an energy landscape. Each point on the landscape represents a candidate solution. The deepest valley represents the actual solution with ...

A quantum mechanical trick called 'spin squeezing' is widely recognized to hold promise for supercharging the capabilities of the world's most precise quantum sensors, but it's been notoriously ...
