A team of scientists has used a quantum processor to create an exotic new state of matter, capturing the strange motion of quantum particles in real time.

Most of the atomic clocks in the world - fewer than 500 in total - are housed at standards institutes and used to keep time ...

While a quantum computer could factor a 2048-bit RSA key in less than a week with fewer than a million qubits, there are ...

Although the basic idea of quantum physics dates back to the earliest years of the twentieth century, it wasn’t until 1925, on the German island of Heligoland, that Werner Heisenberg had the ...

Quantum computers will need large numbers of qubits to tackle challenging problems in physics, chemistry, and beyond. Unlike classical bits, qubits can exist in two states at once—a phenomenon called ...

The simulation of strongly interacting many-body systems is a key objective of quantum physics research, as it can help to test the predictions of physics theories and yield new valuable insight.

Building a working quantum internet would require overcoming a host of technical challenges, but researchers who have built ...

John Clarke, Michel H Devoret and John M. Martinis are announced this year's Nobel Prize winners in Physics, by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences at a press conference in Stockhom, Sweden October ...

A quantum computer has reached new heights. The first quantum computer in space is now orbiting Earth on a satellite, scientists report. Launched on June 23, the computer had to be designed to fit in ...

Experts believe entangling a brain with a quantum computer could finally reveal where consciousness comes from.
