Protons, the positively charged particles that help build every atom in our bodies, are starting to look less like classical ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

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

Quantum physics is usually associated with particle colliders and vacuum chambers, not with the proteins quietly shuttling energy inside our cells. Yet a new line of research argues that protons in ...

A new discovery in physics can be exciting, but are scientists declaring quantum victory too soon? Many breakthroughs aren't ...

A new study in Nature Physics has turned an old problem on its head by reporting a way to use the noisy interactions between ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further.

The fifth state of matter—the ultracold Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)—has been an invaluable tool in unlocking the secrets ...

An international research team has sparked interest in the scientific community with results in quantum physics. In their current study, the researchers reinterpret the Higgs mechanism, which gives ...

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

A new theory of quantum gravity, which attempts to unite quantum physics with Einstein's relativity, could help solve the puzzle of the universe's expansion, a theoretical paper suggests. When you ...
