Bizarre Superfluid Could Explain the Existence of the Modern Universe
Back in the first moment of the universe, everything was hot and dense and in perfect balance. A new quantum experiment aims to show how that changed.
Physicists Built a Machine That Breaks the Normal Rules of Light
Physicists have built a ring in which pulses of light whip circles around each other and the normal rules that govern light's behavior stop applying.
18 Times Quantum Particles Blew Our Minds in 2018
These are all the biggest, most shocking quantum discoveries we covered in 2018.
Schrödinger's Bacteria? Physics Experiment Leads to 1st Entanglement of Living Organisms
A paper published in 2017 appeared to show a limited quantum effect in bacteria. Now scientists argue that something much weirder happened.
7 Quantum Particles Act Like Billions in Weird Physics Experiment
Just seven photons in a mirrored trap formed a Bose-Einstein condensate, one of the more exotic particle states — and one usually reserved for matter.
NASA Created a Rare, Exotic State of Matter in Space
A special device aboard the International Space Station has produced Bose-Einstein condensates in space for the first time ever.
How Quantum Computers Could Kill the Arrow of Time
A new technique for quantum computing could bust open our whole model of how time moves in the universe.
