Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

Quantum technologies, computers or other devices that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, rely on the precise ...

Researchers once struggled to understand unconventional solutions developed by artificial intelligence. A new approach leads ...

Quantum computer research is advancing at a rapid pace. Today's devices, however, still have significant limitations: For example, the length of a quantum computation is severely limited—that is, the ...

Duke Quantum Center researchers use a neutral-atom platform to simulate unusual localization effects that could underpin robust quantum information storage.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this story: The measurement problem in quantum mechanics looks at how an experimental outcome changes, simply by observing it. While most physicists agree that human ...

Looming behind Regenstein Library is a bronze, mushroom cloud–shaped sculpture—Henry Moore’s Nuclear Energy. Installed in 1967, it now seems like an inconspicuous part of the campus landscape. In ...

Quantonation Ventures, a venture firm investing in quantum and physics-based startups, has closed its oversubscribed second ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...

Technological devices are getting ever smaller, but as they approach the scale at which quantum physics matters, our understanding of how they interact with their environment evaporates. James Millen ...
