Inside what looks like a simple block of frozen water, quantum mechanics is quietly rewriting the rules of chemistry. New calculations are revealing how protons tunnel, bonds flicker and molecules ...

I keep coming back to a strange idea: what if everything we know about quantum physics is already encoded inside a single atom? Not in a mystical sense, but in the very real way that one tiny system ...

Over the past decades, quantum physicists and engineers have developed numerous technologies that harness the principles of ...

At low temperatures, hydrogen atoms move less like particles and more like waves. This characteristic enables quantum ...

Quantum computers can outperform even the best classical supercomputers thanks to quantum entanglement and superposition, but even they can’t solve some problems. A new preprint study shows how ...

This study investigates the folding and unfolding behavior of the doubly knotted protein TrmD-Tm1570, providing insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying protein knotting. The findings reveal ...

Efforts to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2 may benefit from a new analytical tool developed by a team led by biologists at Boston College, who report their computer simulation of molecular ...
