Theories of quantum mechanics predict that some particles can exist in superpositions, which essentially means that they can ...

Quantum computing promises to reshape energy by enabling advanced simulations and accelerating materials discovery for carbon ...

Quantum mechanical effects such as radioactive decay, or more generally: 'tunneling', display intriguing mathematical patterns. Researchers now show that a 40-year-old mathematical discovery can be ...

Join Curt Jaimungal talks to Harvard physicist Jacob Barandes and Scott Aaronson. Jacob Barandes claims quantum mechanics can be reformulated without wave functions. Barandes has a new formulation of ...

Strongly interacting systems play an important role in quantum physics and quantum chemistry. Stochastic methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are a proven method for investigating such systems.

Quantum theory is often sold as a story about tiny particles, but its real disruption lands squarely on our everyday sense of what is real. At the smallest scales, the equations that power lasers, ...

CHICAGO — Think of a corn maze as a problem. Think of the people in the maze as traditional computers trying to solve the problem. They’re limited to attempting one route at a time. That’s one way of ...

Researchers at Google have created an algorithm that can translate complex physical problems into the language of quantum mechanics, which could make quantum computers able to tackle more tasks. IBM’s ...

New technologies are enabling scientists to tackle previously elusive physics problems. The macroscopic realm, which consists of everything from falling balls to orbiting planets, can be explained by ...

Two Wall Street giants walk different paths when it comes to quantum research.

In this video, we explore the meaning of quantum physics and the true nature of reality through key concepts in quantum ...
