Once a baffling theory, quantum mechanics has evolved into a driving force behind modern technology and frontier research.

For the first time, scientists have observed quantum entanglement in the momentum of massive particles. The result, decades ...

Few concepts in physics are as familiar, yet as enigmatic, as time. In Einstein's theory of relativity, time is not absolute: ...

We think of it as rigid, smooth, and unidirectional – the arrow of time flies straight and true, and all we can do is go ...

Technology is evolving faster than ever, and one of the most discussed frontiers right now is quantum science. While it might ...

Researchers have shown that surprisingly large metal particles can behave according to quantum mechanics, existing in ...

Scientists previously theorized time can go quantum, using atomic clocks will demonstrate how it can tick fast and slow at ...

Some quantum cryptographers want to find ways to keep messages secret even if the rules of quantum mechanics don’t hold. The ...

In quantum physics, objects can exist in multiple states at the same time—a phenomenon known as quantum superposition, where ...

For many of us, advanced physics can be tough to understand to begin with, which makes it all the more impressive whenever someone earns a Nobel Prize for advancing the field even further. The latest ...

Jim Al-Khalili on how writers and metaphors translate quantum mechanics into stories.

The big-idea explorers at Aperture unpack quantum mechanics and why uncertainty is at the heart of the natural world.
