In a conversation with Scientific American, ’t Hooft spoke about his Breakthrough Prize, his optimism for the future of particle physics, his dissatisfaction with quantum mechanics, and the ...

What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by the limitations of quantum mechanics when trying to study densely packed atoms? At EPFL, you get a metamaterial, an engineered material that ...

In fact, I had some fun compiling quotes from the greatest physicists of the 20th century describing their frustration with the underlying science of quantum mechanics. Here's an excerpt from that ...

Harnessing the principles of quantum mechanics, quantum computing is poised to revolutionize every industry—from technology to healthcare to finance. The unparalleled potential of this emerging ...

Essentially, this form of computing uses principles of quantum mechanics to process information exponentially faster than a "classical" computer. For the past several months, executives at the ...

Quantum entanglement can link two objects even when they are separated by extremely large distances. But a new study has found a limit at which such quantum correlations stop – and surprisingly ...

One of the most important outcomes of the team's research is that it confirms some basic theories of quantum mechanics, according to Zu. However, time quasicrystals may have practical applications ...

Silicon Valley created a massive regional economy when it became the center of the computing industry. As the quantum computing era begins, five locations are poised to become the next tech hot spot.

Rigetti aims to be a "one-stop shop" for quantum hardware and software. D-Wave uses its quantum computing power to optimize business operations. Both stocks are richly valued, but one looks ...
