Quantum information is notoriously fragile. Internet traffic is anything but. Yet Northwestern University scientists have ...

Laying the groundwork for quantum communication systems of the future, engineers at Caltech have demonstrated the successful ...

Quantum networks, systems consisting of multiple connected nodes or devices that can transmit quantum information to one ...

The inevitable leakage of energy and information from a quantum system into its surrounding environment is the enemy of ...

The quest to reconcile quantum mechanics with the geometric description of space-time lies at the heart of modern theoretical physics. Quantum gravity seeks a framework in which gravity itself ...

Here's what you'll learn when you read this story: For the past 30 years, scientists have investigated whether the human brain might require quantum processes to achieve cognition. A study from ...

Theoretical physics went into crisis mode in 1974, when Stephen Hawking first argued that black holes destroy information. Hawking showed that a black hole can evaporate, gradually transforming itself ...

When two microscopic systems are entangled, their properties are linked to each other irrespective of the physical distance between the two. Manipulating this uniquely quantum phenomenon is what ...

Our intuition has evolved to deal with the macroscopic world: the world of things you can hold in your hand and see with your naked eyes. But many of the discoveries of the last century, particularly ...
