Time may feel smooth and continuous, but at the quantum level it behaves very differently. Physicists have now found a way to measure how long ultrafast quantum events actually last, without relying ...
The fragility and laws of quantum physics generally make the characterization of quantum systems time‑consuming. Furthermore, ...
Time feels steady and familiar in daily life, but at the quantum level it becomes slippery. That puzzle now has a fresh twist ...
Once considered an oddity of quantum physics, time crystals could be a good building block for accurate clocks and sensors, ...
Keeping perfect time is far trickier than it sounds. The world’s best clocks that ...
In 2024, a quantum state of light was successfully teleported through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber ...
Physicists have coaxed particles of light into undergoing opposite transformations simultaneously, like a human turning into a werewolf as the werewolf turns into a human. In carefully engineered ...
The unveiling by IBM of two new quantum supercomputers and Denmark's plans to develop "the world's most powerful commercial quantum computer" mark just two of the latest developments in quantum ...
For nearly a century, some of the simplest questions in quantum theory have stubbornly resisted clean answers, turning basic ...
