Laurent Simons became one of the world’s youngest PhD recipients in November, earning a doctorate in quantum physics from the ...

The team have pushed the boundaries of quantum mechanics beyond what some thought possible. Now they want to go even further ...

Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and ...

Metal clusters made of thousands of atoms showed quantum interference, offering new insight into how large objects follow ...

There is no measurement that can directly observe the wave function of a quantum mechanical system, but the wave function is still enormously useful as its (complex) square represents the probability ...

At just 15, Belgian prodigy Laurent Simons earned a PhD in quantum physics, demonstrating exceptional academic prowess. He ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

Cosmology and quantum physics both offer tantalizing possibilities that we inhabit just one reality among many. But testing ...

Quantum mechanics has always carried a quiet tension. At its core, the theory allows particles to exist in many states at ...

Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has ...

Kaia Ra, author, oracle and spiritual teacher, has become an influential voice in conversations linking spirituality with ...

The second paper, "Fermion Chirality from Non-Bipartite Topology," applies this same lattice geometry to the quantum world.
