Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr had an ongoing rivalry about the true nature of quantum mechanics, and came up with a thought ...
Scientists are using anesthesia to probe the quantum roots of consciousness—and the research offers tantalizing evidence.
Physicists have long suspected that gravity might have a hidden quantum side, but for decades the idea has been more ...
Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...
In this video, we explore the meaning of quantum physics and the true nature of reality through key concepts in quantum ...
The famous double-slit experiment brings into question the very nature of matter. Its cousin, the quantum eraser experiment, ...
A new experiment could in principle test the quantumness of an object regardless of its mass or energy. An experiment outlined by a UCL (University College London)-led team of scientists from the UK ...
Secretary General of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences Hans Ellegren, centre, Eva Olsson, left and Thors Hans Hansson, members of the Nobel Committee for Physics announce the winner of the 2022 ...
In 1971, graduate student Stuart Freedman and postdoctoral fellow John Clauser took over a room in the sub-basement of Birge Hall at the University of California, Berkeley, and built an experiment ...
This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American This was supposed to be an action-packed ...
An experiment outlined by a UCL-led team could test whether relatively large masses have a quantum nature, resolving the question of whether quantum mechanical description works at a much larger scale ...
