Hardy's paradox, created in 1992, hinted at a scenario haunting the edges of quantum physics. It presented a thought ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

A team of physicists has coaxed a single, photon-like particle into behaving as if it lives in 37 different quantum ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of physics.

Over the past 50 years, astronomers have made dozens of major discoveries that help explain the nature and origins of the universe. They’ve measured the cosmic microwave background, or leftover ...

Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, interacting very weakly with ordinary ...

Evidence of quantum particles working together to generate self-sustaining energy pulses has scientists rethinking the entire quantum world.

When quantum particles work together, they can produce signals far stronger than any one particle could generate alone. This ...

Recently, Professor Jianda Wu’s research team from the Tsung-Dao Lee Institute at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in collaboration with Professor Jie Ma from the School of Physics and Astronomy and ...

Scientists have for the first time observed quantum entanglement — a state in which particles intermingle, losing their individuality so they can no longer be described separately — between quarks.

Three Pillars of Quantum Physics To grasp the scope of this question, we should first examine three generally accepted principles of quantum physics. When taken together, I argue that these principles ...
