As the size of modern technology shrinks down to the nanoscale, weird quantum effects—such as quantum tunneling, superposition, and entanglement—become prominent. This opens the door to a new era of ...

A research team has, for the first time in the world, elucidated the microscopic mechanism by which quantum order is lost and ...

Physicists Gimin Bae, Youngjae Kim, and Jae Dong Lee have identified a specific microscopic process that causes quantum ...

(Phys.org) —The universe may have existed forever, according to a new model that applies quantum correction terms to complement Einstein's theory of general relativity. The model may also account for ...

There’s a new equation floating around the world of physics these days that would make Einstein proud. It’s pretty easy to remember: ER=EPR. You might suspect that to make this equation work, P must ...

Researchers who want to predict the behavior of systems governed by quantum mechanics—an electron in an atom, say, or a photon of light traveling through space—typically turn to the Schrödinger ...

The Mpemba effect is originally referred to the non-monotonic initial temperature dependence of the freezing start time, but it has been observed in various systems -- including colloids -- and has ...
