Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has ...

Schrödinger’s cat just got a little bit fatter. Physicists have created the largest ever ‘superposition’ — a quantum state in ...

Albert Einstein was right about a shocking among of things, but not necessarily everything.

Quantum technology has reached a turning point, echoing the early days of modern computing. Researchers say functional ...

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...

It has never been straightforward to probe the secrets of quantum systems. Quantum systems are powerful but extremely hard to measure. The traditional methods require astronomical resources, making ...

Replication is a cornerstone of science, yet even in the natural sciences, attempts to reproduce results do not always succeed. Quantum computing promises machines that can solve certain problems far ...

Researchers from the University of Waterloo's Faculty of Science and the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) are ...

Researchers and students can now remotely run new kinds of quantum experiments on campus at the University of Michigan, thanks to the establishment of a quantum testbed that links two labs with ...
