Quantum mechanics has always had a way of making even the sharpest minds stop and scratch their heads. In the everyday world, ...

A new study shows quantum entanglement follows universal rules across dimensions using thermal effective theory.

String theory is perhaps the most high-profile candidate for what physicists call a theory of everything – a single ...

The proof, known to be so hard that a mathematician once offered 10 martinis to whoever could figure it out, connects quantum ...

Black hole and Big Bang singularities break our best theory of gravity. A trilogy of theorems hints that physicists must go ...

A survey of more than 1,000 physicists finds deep disagreements in what quantum theories mean in the real world ...

Quantum entanglement, a bewildering phenomenon where particles become interconnected regardless of the distance separating ...

We've talked about QFT many times before, starting with the very first quantum field theory -- quantum electrodynamics. QED talks about electromagnetic field, whose excitations give us the photon.

Smaller transistors made chips faster, cheaper, and more capable. As Moore's law slows, a different limit has come into focus ...

Scientists have been using quantum theory for almost a century now, but embarrassingly they still don’t know what it means. An informal poll taken at a 2011 conference on Quantum Physics and the ...

Executives attending a BizWest CEO Roundtable on cutting-edge technology at Google Boulder last week got some century-old ...

In a 1905 paper, Albert Einstein proposed that light could travel in the form of particles later called photons. It was one of the pioneering papers in the research that led to quantum mechanics ...
