Physicists use mathematical assumptions in many situations that forbid time from moving backwards – but that isn’t ...

Microsoft’s new “topological qubit” is not based on a solid, liquid or gas. It is another phase of matter that many experts ...

Majorana 1 relies on ‘topological superconductivity,’ a never-before-seen theoretical form of matter.

Oxford scientists teleported quantum gates across six feet, linking separate processors. This step could lead to modular ...

Laure Prouvost's working sketch for We Felt a Star Dying, a plant-like installation inspired by her collaboration with the Google Quantum AI team and the philosopher Tobias Rees C ...

After many years of work, Microsoft has unveiled its first quantum hardware, the Majorana 1 processor. Let’s grok its ...

When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example, the number of electrons they have or even the quantum spin of their ...

Microsoft’s claimed breakthrough follows years of research into a type of particle that comprises a fourth state of matter, ...

In a groundbreaking study, scientists developed new ways to control atom collisions using optical tweezers, offering insights ...

Traditional black holes, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity, contain what are known as singularities, i.e. points where the laws of physics break down. Identifying how ...

Scientists have now mapped the forces acting inside a proton, showing in unprecedented detail how quarks -- the tiny particles within -- respond when hit by high-energy photons. The international team ...

The set, designed as a teaching aid for secondary-school pupils and older, is aimed at making quantum science more accessible and engaging as well as demonstrating the basic principles of ...
