According to a new theory, our universe developed from a “pre-inflationary multiverse” made of particles in quantum superposition.

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

This article investigates the classical limit of the Jarzynski equality in quantum systems, specifically using a nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings model ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

The errors that quantum computers make are holding the technology back. But recent progress in quantum error correction has ...

An international team of physicists has uncovered a subtle but important twist in how “memory” works in quantum systems.

A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution.

You might say it all started with a spot of hay fever. In June 1925, a young physicist named Werner Heisenberg retreated to the barren island of Helgoland in the North Sea, seeking respite from his ...

The physics preceptor sat down with Fifteen Minutes to discuss New York City, interdisciplinarity, and the origins of math.

The parity-identification problem fits naturally into this landscape. Parity is a global property, insensitive to most local details. In this respect, it resembles many other quantities studied in ...
