The photoelectric effect, first explained in 1905, transformed our understanding of how light interacts with matter. When ...

In the natural world, many things come in mirror-image pairs. Your left and right hands are a perfect example—they look alike but can’t be perfectly superimposed.

Quantum computing just got a significant boost thanks to researchers at the University of Osaka, who developed a much more ...

This work marks the first practical use of boson sampling, long seen as a key demonstration of quantum computing’s potential to outperform classical methods. The researchers used computer simulations ...

Jun. 24—by megan gleason The quantum industry might seem futuristic and distant, but it's already establishing a strong foothold in New Mexico. Experts from different science-based industries spoke ...

Microwaves can control a single quantum bit more precisely than ever before, creating a device similar to a quantum transistor – and potentially making quantum computers more reliable ...

CU Boulder scientists created a quantum device that uses cold atoms and lasers to track 3D acceleration. In a new study, ...

Two-dimensional quantum platforms have simulated a process in particle physics called string breaking that generates matter–antimatter pairs. Skip to main content Thank you for visiting nature.com.

The quantum state of each atom — a qubit that could be excited or relaxed — represented the electric field at a point in space, explains co-author Daniel González-Cuadra, ...
