For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general ...

Quantum mechanics is the study of the dynamics of particles at its most fundamental level. The state of a particle, such as its position or momentum, is described by a statistical distribution ...

The race to build the first useful quantum computer is on and may revolutionize the world with brand new capabilities, from ...

This unique course in quantum mechanics was written by an outstanding physics theoretician, who contributed much to the founding and development of the quantum theory. Many of the chapters bear the ...

NIST performed one of the first complete experimental Bell tests in 2015, which firmly established that quantum mechanics is truly random. In 2018, NIST pioneered methods to use these Bell tests ...

time-reversal gauge "invariance" in quantum mechanics, Aharonov-Bohm effect, and Berry topological phase Lecture set 6:Orbital angular momentum general formulation representation theory of SO (3) ...

Return to Helgoland: celebrating 100 years of quantum mechanics The final after-dinner speaker was science journalist Philip Ball, who explained how quantum theory developed in 1924–25 in the run-up ...

The idea of powering a house with a single atom might seem like science fiction, but recent advancements in nuclear physics ...

The Quantum Leap: A New Frontier for Investors Quantum computing leverages the principles of quantum mechanics, promising to revolutionize problem-solving by performing complex calculations far ...

A team including CU PREP researchers and scientists from CU Boulder and NIST have built the first random number generator using quantum entanglement to produce verifiable random numbers. The group ...

General relativity and quantum mechanics appear to be fundamentally incompatible. That’s a big issue in physics because ...

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...
