Quantum field theory (QFT) provides a comprehensive framework for describing the fundamental interactions of matter and radiation. In the context of atom‐field interactions, QFT elucidates how atoms ...

One often-repeated example illustrates the mind-boggling potential of quantum computing: A machine with 300 quantum bits ...

Max Planck is widely recognized as the father of quantum theory for his groundbreaking work on energy quanta. His initial ...

Researchers find that a photon can spend a negative amount of time in an excited atomic state while passing through a cloud ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...

Caltech scientists have built a record-breaking array of 6,100 neutral-atom qubits, a critical step toward powerful ...

A new calculation shows how five atoms interact in the Efimov effect. It marks a major leap in quantum physics. Matter behaves weirdly at the quantum scale, one of the strangest examples being the ...

World’s Fastest Electron Microscope, Quantum Consciousness and the Origin of Life Host Erika Hamden explores quantum mysteries. We visit a University of Arizona lab where the world’s fastest electron ...

NASA's Cold Atom Lab on board the ISS. NASA/JPL-Caltech NASA is experimenting with the use of quantum technology to measure gravity, magnetic fields, and other forces in space. The space agency just ...
