Montana State's QCORE quantum center has received a $31.5 million Air Force grant, making it one of seven global institutions ...

Replication is a cornerstone of science, yet even in the natural sciences, attempts to reproduce results do not always succeed. Quantum computing promises machines that can solve certain problems far ...

Scientists have unveiled a new approach to powering quantum computers using quantum batteries—a breakthrough that could make future computers faster, more reliable, and more energy efficient.

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

Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A new study reveals that electrons don’t just need energy to escape solids — they need the right “doorway state.” (CREDIT: MPQ, ...

Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and ...

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 would like. Yet a growing group of physicists and philosophers now argue ...

A recent study proposes that gravity, the force shaping galaxies and anchoring planets, might not be fundamental after all. Instead, it could arise from entropy, a measure of disorder. The theory, ...
