Over the past decades, the mathematical formulation of physical theories has evolved to provide a unified framework that bridges classical mechanics, quantum mechanics and quantum information theory.

Physicist Sean Carroll explores the unsettling implications of classical mechanics, from Newton’s laws to Laplace’s thought ...

A radical theory that consistently unifies gravity and quantum mechanics while preserving Einstein's classical concept of spacetime has been announced in two papers published simultaneously by UCL ...

Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter. In ...

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis shared the prize for work that enabled the creation of macroscopic ...

For more than a decade, scientists have been investigating ways to develop a “quantum battery” that stores energy using photons rather than electrons or ions. While quantum batteries—thanks to ...

In the 100th-anniversary year of quantum mechanics, which describes the universe at its smallest, most fundamental scales, ...

Nobel Prize winners showcase quantum tunnelling in macroscopic circuits, paving the way for quantum computing.

The research identifies quantum logic as a powerful alternative for modeling human-like reasoning. Unlike classical logic, ...

WORCESTER — A number of different elements will be working in harmony together at the Classical Musical Melody of India concert at 7 p.m. June 3 in Mechanics Hall. The concert is a fundraiser for Joy ...
