At the smallest scales of nature, the rules of the world shift in ways that can feel unsettling and beautiful at the same ...

For nearly a century, some of the simplest questions in quantum theory have stubbornly resisted clean answers, turning basic ...

Scientists test Einstein’s quantum challenge with one atom, directly measuring when photon paths erase interference stripes.

Physicists at Heidelberg University have developed a new theory that finally unites two long-standing and seemingly ...

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

"We have long treated the Planck scale like a blurry limit," said Kulkarni. "But if you treat space as an information storage medium, geometry dictates a specific packing efficiency. The universe has ...

Quantum physics paints a strange picture of the world, one filled with spooky connections, unsettling uncertainties ...

If true, the idea would blow past one of physics’ most sacred limits: that parallel versions of reality can never talk to ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

Researchers have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that's compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding ...
