A new version of the famous double-slit experiment showed that it's impossible to measure light as both a wave and a particle ...

Scientists at the Institute for Photonic Quantum Systems (PhoQS) and the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2) at ...

Physicists have used a machine-learning method to identify surprising new twists on the non-reciprocal forces governing a many-body system.

It won’t make its way into quantum computers, but it could help us understand why the universe is filled with matter.

It’s the weirdest thing: quantum theory works incredibly well in practice. It powers devices ranging from MRI machines to lasers and the very computer you’re reading this on. But even after 100 years, ...

The discovery of the Higgs boson hasn’t led to an explosion of new physics as many predicted. Now, some scientists think that ...

Instead of the big bang, some physicists have suggested that our universe may have come from a big bounce following another ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in ...

Particle physics may have been an early adopter, but AI has now spread throughout physics. This shouldn’t be too surprising. Physics is data-heavy and computationally intensive, so it benefits from ...

An attosecond—or 0.000000000000000001 second—is no time at all for a person. That is not so for electrons, atoms and ...

The sPHENIX particle detector, the newest experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at the U.S. Department of ...

Instead of the big bang, some physicists have suggested that our universe may have come from a big bounce following another universe contracting – but quantum theory could rule this out ...
