Researchers at the University of Basel and the Laboratoire Kastler Brossel have demonstrated how quantum mechanical ...

Quantum mechanics is rich with paradoxes and contradictions. It describes a microscopic world in which particles exist in a ...

Entangled atoms, separated in space, are giving scientists a powerful new way to measure the world with stunning precision.

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

Physicists have pushed one of the strangest ideas in science into new territory, holding tiny clumps of metal in a quantum limbo that recalls Schrödinger’s famous cat. Instead of a single atom or ...

A new study explains how a century of strange physics has evolved from a cat paradox into the foundation of modern technology. It shows how "quantum weirdness" is now being used to build better ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

Quantum mechanics, the theory that governs the subatomic world, rests on a persistent paradox. It describes particles that ...

Breaking the time asymmetry remains a fundamental yet tantalizing scientific challenge. At the macroscopic level the quest has so far turned out to be fruitless, but on the other hand in the subatomic ...

A study by physicists affiliated with the Foundational Questions Institute (FQxI) found that time ...
