Researchers at the University of Innsbruck have shown that quantum sensors can remain highly accurate even in extremely noisy ...

Quantum computers will be able to assume highly complex tasks in the future. With superconducting quantum processors, however ...

Theoretical physics is the development of mathematical formalisms and computational protocols for describing all aspects of objects found in the world around us and their interaction. This can involve ...

An elegant new equation identifies the surprisingly orderly, mathematical way in which things break, shatter, and fall apart.

The Universe is the stage for titanic collisions between massive objects, generating waves that propagate through the fabric ...

The decision to decide what basic science research projects are worthy of funding must be left to scientists, not politicians ...

Researchers discovered that when atoms interact and remain entangled with light, they emit stronger, more coordinated bursts ...

Quantum mechanics has at last been formulated exclusively with real numbers, bringing a mathematical puzzle at the heart of the theory into a new era of inquiry. The amplituhedron, a shape at the ...

A UC Irvine team uncovered a never-before-seen quantum phase formed when electrons and holes pair up and spin in unison, ...

Theoretical nuclear physics is the development of models for describing the nucleus and the processes that occur within it. This includes understanding the shape of the nucleus, or why nuclei with ...

When describing collective properties of macroscopic physical systems, microscopic fluctuations are typically averaged out, ...
