Even given a set of possible quantum states for our cosmos, it's impossible for us to determine which one of them is correct ...

To most of us, time feels as solid as the phone alarm that drags us out of bed or the calendar that fills up faster than we ...

An old puzzle in particle physics has been solved: How can quantum field theories be best formulated on a lattice to ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.

Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

Here are three discoveries from quantum physics that quietly changed how we understand the power of the mind, not in mystical language, but in ways that still make scientists uncomfortable. Scroll ...

Wormholes are often imagined as tunnels through space or time—shortcuts across the universe. But this image rests on a misunderstanding of work by physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen.
