Every black hole hides a question at its center. Einstein's theory predicts that whatever falls in is crushed into a ...
A trapped-ion quantum simulator has captured the real-time unraveling of a confining string, revealing that charge pairs form ...
Nearly a century after physicist Hans Bethe predicted them, scientists have created and directly observed unusual quantum ...
Scientists have developed a powerful new way to calculate the Kondo effect, a strange quantum phenomenon that appears when ...
Once cooled, the laser light has to give the bead a bit of a kick in just the right way to entangle the two. This is done by ...
For over a century, Einsteins equations have described how mass and energy curve spacetime, giving rise to gravity. But where ...
Quantum mechanics powers lasers and precision measurements. A century-spanning perspective examines those successes and the ...
Making it work would require pulling a lot of (cosmic) strings—but perhaps we need wild explanations to explain wild events.
No matter how much science advances, humans know almost nothing about the "consciousness" they use as a matter of ...
Quantum computers promise speedups across a sweeping range of problems, from factoring large integers to simulating molecules ...
Duke's 13-ion experiment completes a trio of string-breaking results across three quantum platforms. Here is what it proves ...
