Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

Quantum mechanics shows that particles in our universe do not have fixed properties like everyday objects. They exist in a state of superposition until a disturbance forces them to "choose" a reality.

The rules of quantum mechanics describe how atoms and molecules act very differently from the world around us. Scientists have made progress toward teasing out these rules—essential for finding ways ...

Physicists have shown that it is possible to prove principles of quantum mechanics such as the superposition principle and Born rule by running experiments on a quantum computer 1. The superposition ...

Space exploration has always embodied the pursuit of the extraordinary and unknown. From the launch of the first satellite to the exploration of distant planets, humanity's venture into space has ...

Quantum computing is a new approach founded on quantum mechanics principles to perform calculations. Unlike classical computers, which store information in bits (either 0 or 1), quantum computers use ...

Associate professor of physics Matthew Headrick researches one of the most cutting-edge ideas in theoretical physics. It proposes that the universe is a three-dimensional image projected off a ...

SHENZHEN, China, May 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MicroAlgo Inc. (the "Company" or "MicroAlgo") (NASDAQ: MLGO), they announced today their research on quantum visual computing, exploring the integration ...

MODERN developments of atomic theory have required alterations in some of the most fundamental physical ideas. This has resulted in its being usually easier to discover the equations that describe ...
