The world of quantum physics is experiencing a second revolution, which will drive an exponential leap in the progress of ...

Quantum physics underlies technologies from the laser to the smartphone. The International Year of Quantum marks a century of scientific developments.

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

The quantum revolution is advancing technology, and new experimental equipment from the University of Barcelona helps ...

New research shows that the second law of thermodynamics, which states entropy increases over time, also applies to closed ...

If you define the concept of entropy in a way that it compatible with the basic ideas of quantum physics, then there is no ...

including connecting students with local industry and quantum technology. The program supports undergraduates in physics, engineering and computer science with the aim to advance quantum education and ...

Did these researchers truly just crack our fundamental concepts of (quantum) physics wide open? As it turns out, not really. Much of the confusion stems from the fact that photons aren’t little ...

Scientists have developed a new method for measuring temperature extremely accurately by using giant 'Rydberg' atoms. This atomic thermometer provides accurate measurements 'out of the box,' without ...
