Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

For more than a century, thermodynamics has described how heat flows and engines run, while quantum mechanics has ruled the strange behavior of atoms and photons. Physicists have long suspected that ...

Governments and tech companies continue to pour money into quantum technology in the hopes of building a supercomputer that can work at speeds we can't yet fathom to solve big problems.

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

Step aside, artificial intelligence. Another transformative technology with the potential to reshape industries and reorder ...

The race to harness quantum mechanics for computing power is finally colliding with the real economy. After a century of ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to ...

At just 15, Laurent Simons has earned a PhD in quantum physics. Scientists are watching closely as his work and future ambitions could shape next-generation science and human health.

Max Born made many contributions to quantum theory. This said, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for physics in 1954 for establishing the statistical interpretation of the ____________. Fill in the blank ...
