This interaction could help explain both why quantum processes can occur within environments like the brain and why we lose ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Scientists may have finally unlocked the unusual role quasiparticles known as "anyons" play in a pair of quantum experiments ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

A recent groundbreaking experiment in which anesthesia was administered to rats has convinced some scientists that tiny structures in the rodents’ brains are responsible for the experience of ...

Diamonds are no longer just prized for their brilliance. In cutting-edge physics labs, synthetic diamonds with carefully ...

Quantum information theory is a field of study that examines how quantum technologies store and process information. Over the ...

A century ago, a group of scientists in Europe began developing a theory to explain how the world’s smallest particles interact. Their discoveries underpinned a new branch of physics and laid the ...

Four decades ago, physicists were theorizing that the mind-bending mechanics of quantum physics could be harnessed to make a new kind of computer that’s exponentially more powerful than conventional ...
