A new set of upgrades to the International Space Station’s Cold Atom Laboratory is allowing NASA to probe quantum mechanics ...

Everything around us, from atoms and molecules to planets and galaxies, is governed by two extraordinarily successful ...

What if time doesn't actually exist until something changes? Scientists at the University of Birmingham created a tiny "mini ...

The question of how gravity interacts with the quantum world has long perplexed physicists, but a non-quantum theory of space ...

The gauge bosons of the standard model of particle physics are responsible for three of the four known forces in the universe, conveyed through the exchange of virtual bosons. In electromagnetism, the ...

Quantum mechanics has journeyed from a strange and controversial idea to the foundation of some of humanity’s most advanced ...

Infleqtion recently launched America’s Quantum Space Initiative, partnering with Voyager Technologies, Monarch Quantum, Armada, and the University of Colorado Boulder to accelerate quantum sensing, ...

Ivette Fuentes is a professor of quantum mechanics who conducts experiments at the scales where quantum theory and general ...

Gravitation as a research area investigates the fundamental interaction responsible for the attraction between masses, spanning classical, relativistic, and quantum regimes. It encompasses the study ...

Large masses – such as a galaxy – curve space-time. Objects move along a geodesic. If we take into account that space-time itself has quantum properties, deviations arise (dashed line vs. solid line).

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...
