Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

The Rochester Quantum Network transmits information by sending single photons through two fiber-optic telecommunications ...

Researchers, in a recent Physical Review Letters paper, introduce a new mechanism that may finally allow ultralight dark ...

There are fundamentally two ways to generate electricity. The first is based on electromagnetic induction, which remains the ...

Researchers at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) in Jena, Germany, together with international ...

The Big Bang may mark an end—not the start—of a previous universe's aeon. Penrose's theory sees the universe as an eternal ...

Participants in a PET study received the tracer, then gave it time to reach the brain. Then they laid in a scanner that took ...

What sun addicts didn’t know then was that we were setting our skin up for damage to its structural proteins and DNA. Hello, ...

Rigetti and D-Wave will be able to break away from the pack, while Quantum Computing’s technology poses a challenge, an ...

Scientists at NIST and the University of Colorado Boulder have created CURBy, a cutting-edge quantum randomness beacon that draws on the intrinsic unpredictability of quantum entanglement to produce ...

Two studies fill in gaps about the cosmos’s ordinary matter. One maps it all, even the “missing matter.” The other details one of its hiding spots.
