quantum physics

Scientists have generated an exotic form of matter in the unique microgravity environment aboard the International Space Station and are using it to explore the quantum world, a new study finds.

A new online training course introduces students to quantum concepts, including superposition, qubits, encryption and many others.

Physicist Freeman Dyson was known for his work on quantum physics and mathematics, as well as his big ideas about the far future.

The bubbling, raucous quantum vacuum distorts the shape of every hydrogen atom in the universe, and it distorts antimatter "antihydrogen" too.

This is a radical new design compared to the world's most sensitive gravitational wave detectors.

Quantum computing seems to inch closer every year.

Heat isn't supposed to move like this.

At some point, the rules of the subatomic give way to the rules of the macroscopic. But how? We're not exactly sure, and it's been a long, strange journey in trying to answer that question.

A quantum experiment raises deeply philosophical questions about the fundamental nature of reality.

NASA has switched on a new, super-precise, space-based atomic clock that the agency hopes will one day form the backbone of a new generation of space exploration technologies.
