For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

New study proposes using atomic clocks to probe the intersection of quantum mechanics and general relativity in spacetime.

Cold atom experiments are among the most powerful and precise ways of investigating and measuring the universe and exploring ...

Quantum gravity strives to reconcile the seemingly disparate realms of general relativity and quantum mechanics. Central to this endeavour is the realisation that classical concepts of spacetime may ...

NVIDIA, the AI boom's $4 trillion chipmaker, is now betting on quantum computing—despite doubts about how soon the technology ...

Quantum physics is often described as the most successful scientific framework in history. In its 100 years of existence, it has explained everything from the periodic table of the elements to how ...

There is no question that quantum theory is correct. It’s been proven over and over, both in the lab and through practical achievement. But the question remains: is it always correct? Quantum ...
