Scientists have just snapped pictures of single atoms as they move around freely, capturing details once hidden from sight.

Quantum computing is an enigma, some practitioners see it as still embryonic technology with few practical examples in place, ...

If we can harness the potential of quantum physics, modern computers may come to seem like plodding calculators in comparison with the machines of the future, says Chris Carter ...

Quantum computing, machines built on the counterintuitive laws of sub-atomic physics, promises raw processing muscle so ...

If you have kids in school, or even if you don’t, you’ve probably realized that there’s a lot about the day-to-day of school ...

From space, our blue-and-white home would appear to ... device ever built for probing the secrets of the atom and the forces and particles which make up our Universe. It is a staggering device ...

By breaking away from the laws of classical physics, quantum physics has opened the door to describing the behavior of atoms ...

A duck stained blue stands by the Tulipas stream that turned blue after an environmental accident in which a truck spilled ...

The greater the cosmic-ray energy, the greater its interaction cross-section, meaning it is more likely to interact with CMB ...

But such measurements are notoriously challenging: the instruments used are themselves governed by quantum laws, and their interaction with particles can alter the very properties they are meant ...
