Superconductivity and magnetism have long been treated as rivals in condensed matter physics, one thriving on perfect ...

The geometry or shape of a quantum system is mathematically expressed by a tool called the quantum geometric tensor (QGT). It also explains how a quantum system's state changes when we tweak certain ...

For decades, physicists taught that superconductivity and magnetism could not share the same space. One state should destroy ...

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have taken an image of what it’s like to cross between worlds — well, sort of. As detailed in a new study published in Nature this week, the ...

Quantum computers promise to solve problems far beyond the reach of classical machines, from simulating new materials to transforming AI. But one key challenge stands ...

MIT physicists have taken the first-ever direct images of individual atoms interacting freely in space. Their findings, published in the journal Physical Review Letters, reveal hidden quantum ...

Sept. 25, 2023 — MIT researchers report they have demonstrated a novel superconducting qubit architecture that can perform operations between qubits with greater ...

The universe is governed by two sets of seemingly incompatible laws of physics – there’s the classical physics we’re used to on our scale, and the spooky world of quantum physics on the atomic scale.

MIT mathematicians tracked a droplet as it bounced through a structure inspired by the theoretical “quantum bomb test.” The shows the droplet’s trajectories when the "bomb" is present, and the right ...

Atlantic Quantum has received a contract from the US Air Force to develop a quantum computer based on fluxonium qubits. The company has been given a $1.8 million Phase II STTR grant from AFWERX, the ...

Quantum communication saw major progress, including longer-distance demonstrations and systems that operate closer to ...
