Once a baffling theory, quantum mechanics has evolved into a driving force behind modern technology and frontier research.

Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity.

World Quantum Day explained, why April 14 links to Planck's constant, and how Google's 2026 Doodle highlights qubits and quantum ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

Quantum mechanics and general relativity are the two pinnacles of 20th-century physics. In their respective fields, scientists have demonstrated time and time again how correct these theories are.

I keep coming back to a strange idea: what if everything we know about quantum physics is already encoded inside a single atom? Not in a mystical sense, but in the very real way that one tiny system ...

A new study published in Nature Physics introduces a theory of electron-phonon coupling that is affected by the quantum geometry of the electronic wavefunctions. The movement of electrons in a lattice ...

By adapting ideas from gauge theory, the researchers show how quantum information spread-out across a machine can be measured using only local checks, significantly lowering computing overhead. Their ...

Quantum invariants have emerged as powerful algebraic and numerical tools that encapsulate the subtleties of topological structures. By drawing on quantum group theory and the constructs of ...

The problem with quantum mechanics, or at least the reason even physicists don’t understand it, isn’t that it paints an unfamiliar picture of reality. It isn’t difficult to accept that the world of ...

Co-authored by BTQ Chief Quantum Officer Dr. Gavin K. Brennen, the research introduces a new error-correction framework for permutation-invariant codes--an enabling step toward more reliable quantum ...
