Two independent research teams have each demonstrated collisional quantum gates using fermionic atoms: a long-sought ...

For the first time, scientists have observed quantum entanglement in the momentum of massive particles. The result, decades in the making, could help physicists probe the relationship between quantum ...

Researchers have developed a way to flip time to move backward in a quantum system. This level of control could lead to ...

A new quantum sensing approach could dramatically improve how scientists measure low-frequency electric fields, a task that ...

A cloud of helium atoms split, scattered and fell under gravity, yet still behaved as if its parts were linked. That is the ...

Typically, adding energy to a system makes it hotter. But last year, scientists demonstrated that quantum systems don’t ...

We think of it as rigid, smooth, and unidirectional – the arrow of time flies straight and true, and all we can do is go ...

Quantum physicists at the Australian National University (ANU) have achieved a major milestone by directly observing atoms ...

Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.

Collisional quantum gates based on fermionic atoms have been realized independently by researchers in Germany and Switzerland ...

(The Conversation is an independent and nonprofit source of news, analysis and commentary from academic experts.) Since the prize announcement, cheers and excitement have surrounded the home ...

Few concepts in physics are as familiar, yet as enigmatic, as time. In Einstein's theory of relativity, time is not absolute: ...
