Theoretical physicist Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski, who built and flew her own airplane before she had a driver's license, is leading a multimillion-dollar effort to answer one of science's biggest ...

Abstract Catalysis refers to the possibility of enabling otherwise inaccessible quantum state transitions by supplying an auxiliary system, provided ...

Scientists can now calculate how shared reality emerges from the strange quantum world where particles can exist in many ...

A radical idea that resolves many quantum paradoxes suggests there is no objective view of reality. How can the cosmos be stitched together from interlocking perspectives?

Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger developed quantum theory’s wave equation, which describes quantum systems as waves that ...

Curiosity-driven research has long sparked technological transformations. A century ago, curiosity about atoms led to quantum mechanics, and eventually the transistor at the heart of modern computing.

Louisiana Tech University senior Jesse Webb will represent the United States this April at the NYU Abu Dhabi International ...

Theoretical physicists collaborate with OpenAI's artificial intelligence to solve complex calculations involving gluons and ...

The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than ...

Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called asymptotic safety, thinks we just need to push a little further.

Against this backdrop, a new large-scale research work devoted to the analysis of the fundamental structure of modern physics has been published. Researcher Sergey G. Kolesnyak has presented a ...

More than a century before quantum mechanics was born, Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton stumbled onto an idea that would quietly foreshadow one of the deepest truths in physics. While ...
