Quantum mechanics

The scientists have described how they made two individual quantum photons of light interact, which is very hard to do.

Particle accelerators, usually the size of small cities, accelerate electrons to immense speeds using electric fields, producing X-rays.

A quantum shutdown "could be the most catastrophic disaster we've experienced," the Director of Hudson Institute's Quantum Alliance Initiative told Newsweek.

For decades mathematicians have sought some of the most quizzical answers regarding group theory. A TikTok video has brought it to a wider audience.

"It's always exciting to set a world record," Tongcang Li from Purdue University said.

Quantum computers have the potential to perform certain tasks much faster than classical computers, although they are still some way away from being a practical reality.

Many of the concepts in 'Endgame' are connected to recent scientific theory, simulation and speculation.

The theory of general relativity, which describes the nature of gravity, revolutionized science after its publication in 1915.

The object can make about 60 billion rotations per second.

The research—which was led by the Institute of Photonic Sciences in Barcelona—was conducted by an international team of physicists from 12 institutions who managed to close a loophole found in a common test of quantum mechanics.

Quantum mechanics is the bizarre physics of the very small.

There are several additional forms of matter beyond solids, liquids and gases.

Hawking sought to unify the science of the incredibly large and the incredibly small.

Einstein called it "spooky action at a distance." Others call it the future of computing.

The theory breaks with the popular idea that expansion is caused by dark energy and suggests energy for expansion would never run out.
