Theoretical physicists studying quantum fields in curved spacetime have built a growing body of calculations showing that ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

In holographic theories, physicists may have traced the pliability of space-time to its quantum roots: a measure of ...

Quantum entanglement remains one of physics’ strangest ideas. Two particles become linked so closely ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Physicists developed simplified formulas to quantify quantum entanglement in strongly correlated electron systems. Their approach was applied to nanoscale materials, revealing unexpected quantum ...

Scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a quantum engine powered by entanglement—the quantum property allows for the transfer of information across vast distances. The researchers ...

Quantum entanglement offers a unified ab initio framework for revealing chemical bonds, from Lewis structures to aromatic and ...
