This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Alex May, whose research explores the intersection of quantum ...

This interaction could help explain both why quantum processes can occur within environments like the brain and why we lose ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...

Jainendra Jain with one of his graduate students in his office. Penn State has launched a new center dedicated to quantum science and germinating cross-disciplinary collaboration. The Center for ...

The force we experience most intimately remains the most mysterious. Physicists understand how vast migrations of particles called photons light up our homes, and how swarms of “gluon” particles hold ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

A new study has been published that further complicates the argument that gravity could be explained using quantum entanglement. If true, this could further complicate efforts to explain how gravity ...

Pick up any science fiction book from the 1960s, and you’ll find parallel dimensions explained through magic portals or mysterious machines that work “just because.” Today’s readers want stories that ...

I have long been fascinated by the strong attraction many people feel toward quantum field theory as a way to explain extraordinary experiences. As a psychiatrist interested in coincidences and the ...

Prize awarded for developing 'next generation of quantum technology' 'I'm completely stunned,' says UC Berkeley professor Quantum technology ubiquitous in everyday electronics Physics is second prize ...
