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

Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of matter in which spins (i.e., the intrinsic angular momentum of electrons) do not ...

A new definition of time suggests that what we once thought was a fundamental element of our physical reality could actually just be an illusion created by quantum entanglement. That's a very bold ...

A study from Technion unveils a newly discovered form of quantum entanglement in the total angular momentum of photons confined in nanoscale structures. This discovery could play a key role in the ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Quantum effects are no longer confined to ultra-cold chips and vacuum chambers. For the first time, researchers are deliberately engineering living cells so that they behave like quantum bits, hinting ...

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

Learn about Nobel laureate Roger Penrose's idea of how consciousness is caused by quantum processes. Nobel laureate Roger Penrose is widely held to be one of the most brilliant living physicists for ...
