He disproved one of Einstein’s toughest theories, was regarded as a genius and died in the year he was nominated for the ...

Rapid advances in the kind of problems that quantum computers can tackle suggest that they are closer than ever to becoming ...

The brilliant physicist Richard Feynman once famously remarked that “nobody understands quantum mechanics” given the ...

A century ago, the strange behavior of atoms and elementary particles led physicists to formulate a new theory of nature. That theory, quantum mechanics, found immediate success, proving its worth ...

Quantum computers based on ions or atoms have one major advantage: The qubits themselves aren’t manufactured, and there’s no device-to-device variability among atoms. Every atom is the same and should ...

Quantum computing stocks have lost a little luster lately, as Wall Street catches up to their valuations. Today is a step in the right direction for the speculative technology, though, after the Wall ...

Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have proven that the Carnot principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does not apply to objects on the atomic scale whose physical properties are linked ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics.John Clarke, ...

Three U.S.-based scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for their discoveries in quantum mechanics. The award was given to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for ...

On the centennial of modern quantum mechanics, the Nobel Committee awarded the year’s most prestigious physics prize to an experiment that demonstrated how quantum effects play out on large ...
