A new twist on Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle can sharpen quantum sensors

Physicists have found a way to redistribute uncertainty in quantum measurements, paving the way for ultra-sensitive ...

Physicists set record with 6,100-qubit array

Quantum computers will need large numbers of qubits to tackle challenging problems in physics, chemistry, and beyond. Unlike classical bits, qubits can exist in two states at once—a phenomenon called ...

Information could be a fundamental part of the universe – and may explain dark energy and dark matter

The true “informational age” of the cosmos may be 62 billion years, not just the 13.8 billion years of our current expansion.

100 years before quantum mechanics, one scientist glimpsed a link between light and matter

The Irish mathematician and physicist William Rowan Hamilton, who was born 220 years ago last month, is famous for carving ...

Scientists Think We’re One Step Closer to a Quantum Internet

By mixing together quantum and classical data, scientists successfully transmitted quantum signals using Verizon’s fiber ...
