The Latest Breaking News on Physics

Can we build a quantum computer whose information unit is, colloquially speaking, sound? According to a paper published in Science this month, it should be possible. The problem is that researchers can manipulate electrons using electric currents, magnetic fields, etc., and they can manipulate photons with mirrors, lenses, etc. –…

Physicists at the Large Hadron Collider are closing in on an explanation for why we live in a universe of matter and not antimatter.

A new paper discusses how light interacts with theoretical objects called "topological solitons" — kinks in the fabric of space-time that look just like black holes.

In the future, fine-tuning nature’s quantum properties could enable researchers to develop therapeutic devices that are noninvasive, remotely controlled and accessible with a mobile phone.

A research team with the RIKEN Quantum Computing Centre in Japan have unlocked a major performance increase relevant in the fields of condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry.

The electrons in metallic objects have an effective temperature of tens of thousands of degrees celsius because of the Fermi energy, a concept that illustrates how much quantum physics controls the properties of everyday objects in our homes.

Researchers with Microsoft, AWS and the Scalable Parallel Computing Laboratory in Zurich have published research that throws some doubt over how soon quantum computers will achieve advantage over their classical counterparts.

Fermilab physicist Sam Zeller talks about trying to discover why matter and antimatter should have but didn’t all annihilate at the time of the Big Bang. Which allowed us to be here today.

The National Quantum Mission aims to catapult efforts across India to engineer the delicate quantum features of photons to build advanced sensors and boost the value added by these enterprises.
