Unifying physics just got harder: Study challenges fundamental test of quantum gravity
While this may complicate the quest for a clear experimental signature of quantum gravity, it does not render such tests useless. According to the research team, both classical and quantum models of gravity would produce entanglement at different strengths depending on variables such as mass, separation distance, and experiment duration.
As quantum computing is attracting unprecedented investment, with $3 billion flowing into the sector in just the first half of September through major venture deals and public markets, critical infrastructure challenges remain and threaten to undermine the technology's ambitious scaling goals.
Explore Google's breakthrough in quantum advantage, showcasing its Willow processor's ability to outperform supercomputers in complex problem-solving.
A supersolid is a paradoxical state of matter—it is rigid like a crystal but flows without friction like a superfluid. This exotic form of quantum matter has only recently been realized in dipolar quantum gases.

Scientists built a microscopic ‘ocean’ on a silicon chip to study quantum waves
For more than 50 years, scientists have dreamed of seeing the hidden patterns that govern the motion of nonlinear waves—the unpredictable ripples that shape tsunamis, tides, and turbulent flows. Now,
Penn State scientists have unveiled a new theory-driven method to predict superconductors, offering a possible path toward materials that could conduct electricity perfectly. Electricity travels through wires to deliver power,
Quantum echoes” rippling through Google’s quantum computer chip Willow could lead to advances in molecular chemistry and the physics of black holes
The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics.
The Nobel committee said that the laureates' work provides opportunities to develop "the next generation of quantum technology, including quantum cryptography, quantum computers, and quantum sensors."
This balance—neurons as the silent bee workers, waves as the queen’s rhythm holding the hive together—suggests consciousness may be measurable, but complicated. Which means that the professor who once snapped that the soul was “just neurons firing” may have missed the bigger picture.
