A new experiment confirms that angular momentum conservation holds even when a single photon is split into two.

Physicists at the Max Planck Institute have developed an efficient new method to drive the quantum entanglement of photons, and demonstrated it by entangling a record number of photons. The technique ...

Cornell researchers have built a programmable optical chip that can change the color of light by merging photons, without ...

Quantum networks, systems consisting of connected quantum computers, quantum sensors or other quantum devices, hold the ...

Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories and the Max Planck Institute have developed a way to produce a web of quantum entangled photons using a far more simple setup than usual. The key is a ...

Researchers developed a quantum network using arrays of ¹⁷¹Yb atoms, recognized for their potential in long-distance quantum ...

Scientists seeking to explore the teeming microcosm of quarks and gluons inside protons and neutrons report new data delivered by particles of light. The light particles, or photons, come directly ...

In a recent experiment, Oxford Universityresearchers have successfully linked two quantum computers using photons to share ...

Light is well known to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, as imaged here in this 2015 photograph. What's less well appreciated is that matter particles also exhibit those wave-like ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis "for the discovery of ...

Quarks are elemental particles, with no sub-structure. Understanding them is crucial to learning how physics works on the smallest levels. By studying collisions of incredibly small particles made up ...
