Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, have the potential of ...

SQUIRE aims to detect exotic spin-dependent interactions using quantum sensors deployed in space, where speed and ...

Researchers found that gold “super atoms” can behave like the atoms in top-tier quantum systems—only far easier to scale. These tiny clusters can be customized at the molecular level, offering a ...

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Superconductivity occurs when electrical current moves without resistance, a phenomenon that gave rise to particle accelerators, magnetic resonance imagining machines and trains ...

Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity does a great job at explaining gravity but it is thought to be incomplete ...

An international team led by the University of Oxford has identified one of the largest rotating structures ever reported: a ...

A crucial number that rules the universe goes big in a strange quantum material. The fine-structure constant is about 10 times its normal value in a type of material called quantum spin ice, ...

Scientists are using anesthesia to probe the quantum roots of consciousness—and the research offers tantalizing evidence.

The newly discovered structure, known as a cosmic filament, includes a “razor-thin” thread of galaxies. It’s giant, it spins, ...

Whipping his racquet through the air like a cesta in jai alai, Rafael Nadal produces such tremendous topspin that the ball sometimes seems to catapult off the court, creating a shot as challenging to ...
