Human behaviour is an enigma that fascinates many scientists. And there has been much discussion over the role of probability in explaining how our minds work. Probability is a mathematical framework ...

Within our comfortable world of causality we expect that reactions always follow an action and not vice versa. This why the recent chatter in the media about researchers having discovered ‘negative ...

A team of physicists affiliated with multiple institutions in China has measured a pulse of light in 37 dimensions. In their paper published in Science Advances, the group explains that their ...

This year's Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three quantum scientists. How important was their work to quantum research? Klaus Ensslin: Experiments conducted by these three researchers forty ...

The image depicts an experiment in which heavy particles(illustrated as the moon), cause an interference pattern (a quantum effect), while also bendingspacetime. The ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

Quantum computing is slowly entering the mainstream, as more people discuss the technology and its potential within ...

Quantum technology has spent more than a century in the lab, but the commercial spark is finally catching. Hardware is maturing, investors are piling in, and early real world deployments are starting ...

A wild theory suggests that consciousness may explain quantum mechanics, by forcing the subatomic particles to choose one concrete outcome. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Was there ever any choice in the Universe being as it is? Albert Einstein could have been wondering about this when he remarked to mathematician Ernst Strauss: “What I’m really interested in is ...

Quantum mechanics, the theory which rules the microworld of atoms and particles, certainly has the X factor. Unlike many other areas of physics, it is bizarre and counter-intuitive, which makes it ...
