While the prevailing consensus has been that Einstein's theory of gravity must be modified to fit within the framework of quantum theory, a new theory, coined as a "postquantum theory of classical ...

The basic hydrogen atom is the simplest of all atoms, now known to consist of a single proton and a single electron. Why even physicists still don’t understand quantum theory 100 years on Bohr ...

Quantum physics just took a leap from theory to reality! Empa researchers have, for the first time, successfully built a long ...

"Quantum theory then tells us the probabilities to ... systems that consist of very few particles (for example, a hydrogen atom with only a few electrons), then such considerations are irrelevant.

Seth Aubin -- experiment Quantum gases, laser cooling & trapping, atom chips, atom interferometry ... Prof. Enrico Rossi -- theory Topological insulators, graphene, superconductivity, quantum Hall ...

The company says it has solved the first problem of scientific relevance with a quantum processor faster than could be done ...

To begin with, there’s no single quantum theory. There’s quantum mechanics ... which explains the stability of the nucleus at the heart of the atom; and the weak nuclear force, which explains ...

Using a process known as quantum annealing, the researchers have provided a proof-of-concept method to study the dynamics of ...

Physicists have proposed a radical approach that questions decades of belief about how gravity, spacetime, and quantum mechanics fit together.

Laying the groundwork for quantum communication systems of the future ... within these crystals, causing each atom to emit a photon that remains entangled with it. Photons from atoms in two ...

A study led by the University of Portsmouth has achieved unprecedented precision in detecting tiny shifts in light displacements at the nanoscale. This is relevant in the characterization of ...
