For centuries, scientific progress has depended on more precise tools for measuring the world around us. Galileo’s telescope ...

Another major quantum computing record has been broken, and by a considerable margin: physicists have now built an array containing 6,100 qubits, the largest of its type and way above the thousand or ...

One often-repeated example illustrates the mind-boggling potential of quantum computing: A machine with 300 quantum bits ...

In 2022 three scientists won the Nobel Prize in Physics for proving something astonishing: the universe is not locally real. In other words, particles don’t have fixed properties until they are ...

For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the ...

Caltech scientists have built a record-breaking array of 6,100 neutral-atom qubits, a critical step toward powerful ...

The quantum universe is full of mysteries, and among them, quantum entanglement intrigues with its puzzling properties.

A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

This article explores how our understanding of the universe has evolved—from the scale of everyday experience down to the ...

The exhibition "The Cosmos in a Leap. Atoms, Quanta, Technological Revolutions" was inaugurated today at the Real Casa ...

The mysterious quantum universe questions our conventional understanding of reality. In this reality, particles can exist in several states at once, be entangled across great distances, and where the ...
