Quantum field theory (QFT) provides a comprehensive framework for describing the fundamental interactions of matter and radiation. In the context of atom‐field interactions, QFT elucidates how atoms ...

Quantum gravity remains one of the big missing pieces of a Grand Unified Theory that could bridge quantum field theory and general relativity. Knowing that quantum gravity solutions must resemble ...

Scientists have created a giant quantum vortex to mimic a black hole in superfluid helium that has allowed them to see in greater detail how analogue black holes behave and interact with their ...

For the past six years, Los Alamos National Laboratory has led the world in trying to understand one of the most frustrating barriers that faces variational quantum computing: the barren plateau.

Researchers have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that's compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding ...

A new platform for engineering chiral electron pathways offers potential fresh insights into a quantum phenomenon discovered by chemists—and exemplifies how the second quantum revolution is fostering ...

Breakthroughs in science often begin with a simple question and years of tireless exploration. From the way tiny molecules slip through microscopic pores to the staggering behavior of matter near ...

Quantum entanglement, a bewildering phenomenon where particles become interconnected regardless of the distance separating them, challenges our fundamental understanding of reality. It has puzzled ...

Computers, the internet and digitization have been major driving forces of innovation over the last 50 years, but classical computing architecture has its limits. Quantum computing is emerging as a ...
