Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space and time has remained fundamentally disconnected. Relativity unifies space ...

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 ...

Scientists have created a powerful new way to control quantum systems, achieving the first-ever demonstration of ...

Frédéric Sarazin, director of quantum at the Colorado School of Mines in the US, talks to Tushna Commissariat about the ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward futuristic energy tech by building a working prototype of a quantum battery—one that can charge, store, and release energy using the strange rules of quantum ...

A quantum computer has reached new heights. The first quantum computer in space is now orbiting Earth on a satellite, scientists report. Launched on June 23, the computer had to be designed to fit in ...

Picture Victorian London, but its skies are filled with airships. Steam-powered robots crowd the streets, mingling with people in top hats and petticoats. That type of retrofuturistic mash-up is the ...

The reference frames from which observers view quantum events can themselves have multiple possible locations at once — an insight with potentially major ramifications. Imagine standing on a railway ...

Theories of quantum mechanics predict that some particles can exist in superpositions, which essentially means that they can ...

Teleporting people through space is still science fiction. But quantum teleportation is dramatically different and entirely real. In this episode, Janna Levin interviews the theoretical physicist John ...
