A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve ...

A recent study proposes that gravity, the force shaping galaxies and anchoring planets, might not be fundamental after all.

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 ...

Record-breaking experiment shows that a cluster of thousands of atoms can act like a wave as well as a particle.

HYDERABAD: The University of Hyderabad (UoH)’s School of Physics has begun celebrations marking the centenary of quantum ...

Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...

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 ...

Unless you're a physicist, you've probably only encountered quantum mechanics on TV. And even when it was explained, you might've still been a little confused. The field of quantum mechanics was ...

In 1925, German physicist Werner Heisenberg published a paper on quantum mechanics, upending classical physics and launching the world into the quantum age.

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is an emerging communication technology that utilizes quantum mechanics principles to ensure ...

The mere mention of “quantum consciousness” makes most physicists cringe, as the phrase seems to evoke the vague, insipid musings of a New Age guru. But if a new hypothesis proves to be correct, ...
