For decades, physicists have dreamed of a quantum internet: a planetary web of ultrasecure communications and super-powered ...

Quantum teleportation has quietly moved from thought experiment to working network demo, with researchers now shuttling ...

Everyday life on the internet is insecure. Hackers can break into bank accounts or steal digital identities. Driven by AI, ...

Quantum theory fails to explain how the reality we experience emerges from the world of particles. A new take on quantum ...

Photonic quantum processors, devices that can process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects and particles of ...

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 ...

Research revealing how “thermal” behaviour can emerge from low-complexity dynamics and not necessarily extremely chaotic ones, has been published in the prestigious journal Physical Review Letters.

A new Swinburne study is addressing a core paradox: if quantum computing is solving problems that cannot be checked by conventional methods, how can we be certain the results are correct? Quantum ...

Researchers at Brown University in the US have observed fractional excitons, a new class of quantum materials in a global first. These particles that defy traditional understanding of quantum ...

Katie has a PhD in maths, specializing in the intersection of dynamical systems and number theory. She reports on topics from maths and history to society and animals. Katie has a PhD in maths, ...

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 ...

As a trained physicist and now a university president, I am doubly excited by the acceleration in quantum computing and the possibilities quantum thinking offers for elevated understanding, innovation ...
