To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

EPFL physicists have found a way to measure the time involved in quantum events and found it depends on the symmetry of the material. "The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for ...

Physicists have found a way to measure how long ultra-fast quantum events actually take—without using a clock at all.

Can a single particle have a temperature? It may seem impossible with our standard understanding of temperature, but ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have uncovered experimental evidence that ...

While quantum computers continue to slowly grind towards usefulness, some are pursuing a different approach—analog quantum ...

Quantum computing technology is complex, getting off the ground and maturing. There is promise of things to come. potentially changing the computing paradigm.

The study shows that in quantum devices, reading a clock consumes far more energy than running it. This insight will help ...

Cosmology and quantum physics both offer tantalizing possibilities that we inhabit just one reality among many. But testing that idea is challenging.

The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for thousands of years, and the advent of quantum mechanics has not simplified the ...

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...
