Are quantum particles polygamous? New experiments suggest some of them abandon long-standing partnerships when ...

Quantum particles have a social life, of a sort. They interact and form relationships with each other, and one of the most ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further.

When quantum particles work together, they can produce signals far stronger than any one particle could generate alone. This ...

Researchers have demonstrated for the first time self-induced superradiance in quantum particles, completely flipping what ...

The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, interacting very weakly with ordinary ...

Understanding the chemical properties of a molecule is an inherently quantum problem, making quantum computers a good tool ...

A rift runs deep through the heart of physics. The general theory of relativity, which describes gravity, clashes with quantum physics. In an effort to seal that physics fissure, untold numbers of ...
