Researchers have confirmed the existence of a "nuclear-spin dark state," which could lead to more stable and powerful quantum ...

In the vast expanse of space, where stars are born and planets take shape, one molecule plays a crucial role in interstellar ...

Quantum calculations amount to sophisticated estimates. But in 1931, Hans Bethe intuited precisely how a chain of particles ...

While Quantum Fiber boasts one of the largest fiber-optic networks in the US, its coverage is limited to just a handful of cities. While Quantum Fiber plans and pricing may vary depending on where ...

Entropy always increases, but in quantum systems, traditional entropy measures seem constant. TU Wien researchers resolved this paradox by considering Shannon entropy, which accounts for the ...

Physicists know from previous experiments that what happens at the nuclear scale to protons and neutrons also affects their ...

Some of the Los Alamos scientists feared that the USSR might already be working on a hydrogen bomb and one of them, the arch-hawk, Edward Teller, urged the rapid development of a weapon with an ...

If you are investigating quantum systems that consist of very few particles (for example, a hydrogen atom with only a few electrons), then such considerations are irrelevant. But today ...

Quantum-computing stocks have surged in recent months, reflecting hype that’s at odds with the current financial reality of these businesses, which still bring in minimal revenue. The stocks ...

A freighter was on its way to Canada on Sunday after it was freed from ice that trapped it in a frozen Lake Erie for days, the U.S. Coast Guard said. The Manitoulin, a 663-foot (202-meter ...

Our physics expert picks his top-five equations, plus a scheme to supply US power needs with a bucket of baseballs. Thanks, ...
