Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to Albert Einstein’s instincts about reality. By stripping classic thought ...

When sand grains wedge together in a funnel, the whole column locks up. Something strikingly similar can happen to quantum ...

Some quantum cryptographers want to find ways to keep messages secret even if the rules of quantum mechanics don’t hold. The ...

A new experiment encodes quantum information in the motion of the atoms and creates a state known as hyper-entanglement, in which two or more traits are linked among a pair of atoms. Manuel Endres, ...

Controlling quantum states with high precision—and entangling particles—has long been the goal of researchers pushing the boundaries of quantum technology. Although great strides have been made across ...

Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity.
