Is life itself quantum mechanical? Questions of quantum mechanics are now being applied in the field of biology, with scientists asking whether life itself relies on quantum mechanics – one of the ...

To progress to the next level in understanding reality, we need to combine quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general ...

Quantum computing operates on the principles of quantum mechanics, where information is stored in qubits—quantum bits that can exist in multiple states simultaneously. Unlike classical bits, which are ...

Quantum theory – our best understanding of the world at the smallest level – is famously weird and notoriously confusing. It’s a theory that seems to say particles can be in two places at once, or ...

Hardy's paradox, created in 1992, hinted at a scenario haunting the edges of quantum physics. It presented a thought ...

What does quantum mechanics, the most successful theory ever proposed by physics, teach us about reality? The starting point for most philosophers of physics is that quantum mechanics must somehow ...

In the quantum world particles can instantaneously know about each other's state, even when separated by large distances. This is known as nonlocality. Now, A research group has produced some ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve ...

Quantum immortality is a controversial and fascinating concept that emerges from the interpretations of quantum mechanics, suggesting that consciousness could survive beyond physical death in an ...

In his 2019 New York Times opinion piece entitled, “Even Physicists Don’t Understand Quantum Mechanics. Worse, they don’t seem to want to understand it,” physicist Sean Carroll wrote, “Few modern ...

The 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Alain Aspect, John Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger for their works on "quantum nonlocality" in quantum mechanics. Quantum nonlocality is a phenomenon where ...
