A century ago, science went quantum. To celebrate, physicists are throwing a global, year-long party. In 1925, quantum mechanics, the scientific theory that describes the unintuitive rules of ...

A major milestone in quantum computing has been achieved after researchers at the University of Oxford built a scalable ...

Devices that leverage quantum mechanics effects, broadly referred to as quantum technologies, could help to tackle some ...

Quantum mechanics — the most successful and important theory in modern physics — is like that ... but they are not pre-existing facts. That is quite a distinction. The most vivid implication ...

A team at Oxford University successfully networked together two quantum processors using optical fiber and quantum ...

In our lived reality, we perceive time as a linear progression moving in one direction. While today gives way to tomorrow and ...

For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...

Quantum mechanics plays a role in the process of photosynthesis. Engineers have long sought efficient ways to convert solar ...

Classical and quantum mechanics don’t really get along as the science of the subatomic can get, well, weird. Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle ...

A team of scientists from Oxford University might have paved the way for humans to use teleportation as a mode of transport ...

So welcome to Quinnie – the official mascot for the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ) 2025. Unveiled at the launch of the IYQ at the headquarters of UNESCO in Paris on 4 ...
