Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

Stockholm — John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis won the Nobel Prize in Physics on Tuesday for research on seemingly obscure quantum tunneling that is advancing digital technology.

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis were recognized for work that made behaviors of the subatomic realm observable at a larger scale. By Katrina Miller and Ali Watkins John Clarke, ...

Forgetting feels like a failure of attention, but physics treats it as a fundamental process with a measurable price. At the ...

More than 200 years ago, Count Rumford showed that heat isn’t a mysterious substance but something you can generate endlessly through motion. That insight laid the foundation for thermodynamics, the ...

A new kind of mirror is emerging from quantum physics labs, one that exists not as a chunk of polished glass but as a ...

Time may not be a fundamental element of the universe but rather an illusion emerging from quantum entanglement, a new study suggests. Time is a thorny problem for physicists; its inconsistent ...

To promote faster development of quantum algorithms and applications, IBM has just launched the Qiskit Functions Catalog. This new platform allows developers from IBM and other organizations to ...
