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, ...

Experts say the emerging tech can dramatically accelerate advances in drug discovery, diagnostics and precision medicine.

Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

As Joe Howlett points out, "the Schrödinger equation remains physicists’ foremost window into the quantum realm. It tells scientists how that strange world works; that is, how quantum objects interact ...

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

Does quantum mechanics really reflect nature in its truest form, or is it just our imprecise way of describing the weird properties of the very small? A famous test that can help answer this question ...

Investors have been very interested in quantum computing stocks since last December, when Alphabet's Google unit announced breakthroughs in the field. Quantum computing refers to using the properties ...

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have produced experimental evidence that quantum-level effects can alter the ...

The parity-identification problem fits naturally into this landscape. Parity is a global property, insensitive to most local details. In this respect, it resembles many other quantities studied in ...
