Most quantum devices need to be chilled to near absolute zero to work. A new chip built at Stanford University does not. In a ...

Quantum field theory says true nothingness doesn’t exist; even a vacuum teems with energy fields that help create matter and ...

Scientists at the University of Würzburg and the German national metrology institute (PTB) have carried out an experiment that realizes a new kind of quantum standard of resistance. It's based on the ...

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that’s what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum ...

Quantum computing, once only a theoretical possibility, promises to deliver faster, more energy-efficient computers—but only if scientists can build and scale the hardware needed to run the machines.

Mathematicians have struggled to understand the moduli space of graphs. A new paper uses tools from physics to peek inside. “That’s a super hard problem. It’s amazing they were able to,” said Dan ...

An international team of researchers has found a simple relationship between the rates of energy and information transmission across an interface connecting two quantum field theories. An ...

I have long been fascinated by the strong attraction many people feel toward quantum field theory as a way to explain extraordinary experiences. As a psychiatrist interested in coincidences and the ...

Trapped electrons traveling in circular loops at extreme speeds inside graphene quantum dots are highly sensitive to external magnetic fields and could be used as novel magnetic field sensors with ...
