Anomalous” heat flow, which at first appears to violate the second law of thermodynamics, gives physicists a way to detect ...

It’s fascinating to think about the power in our pocket—today’s smartphones have the computing power of a military computer from 50 years ago that was the size of an entire room. However, even with ...

It's a well-known fact that quantum calculations are difficult, but one would think that quantum computers would facilitate the process. In most cases, this is true.

Physicists have long known that quantum computers have the potential to race through calculations trillions of times as fast as ordinary computers do. Now, it seems that those machines may not have to ...

A century after wormholes were first theorized, scientists have posited that passages through space-time can be traversed using a special quantum connection between two black holes. Wormholes can ...

Interpretations In his new book of essays, David Kaiser explores quantum physics from a scientific, historical, economic and philosophical standpoint. (Courtesy: iStock/Pobytov) Both a physicist and a ...

"Anyone who claims to understand quantum theory is either lying or crazy," physicist Richard Feynman once said, according to legend. That situation hasn't changed much in the roughly 90 years since ...

UK-based Cambridge Quantum Computing (CQC), a quantum software and algorithm specialist, today released researcher papers on its use of quantum computing to develop intuitive, “meaning-aware” natural ...

IonQ Says It Achieves ‘Landmark’ Result. Where the So-Called Nvidia of Quantum Computing Goes Next. IonQ claimed Tuesday to have achieved a “landmark result” in quantum computing, saying it set the ...
