If a tree falls in the forest and someone is there to hear it, does it make a sound? Perhaps not. As macroscopic observers, we can say three things about reality. If you see an event happening, it ...

Be fast, avoid light, and roll through a curvy ramp: This is the recipe for a pioneering experiment proposed by theoretical physicists. An object evolving in a potential created through electrostatic ...

Quantum physics concerns a world of infinitely small things. But for years, researchers from the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, have been attempting to observe the properties of quantum ...

Quantum physics concerns a world of infinitely small things. But for years, researchers have been attempting to observe the properties of quantum physics on a larger scale, even macroscopic. Quantum ...

A new framework shows how lost information in quantum systems gives rise to macroscopic entropy and the arrow of time Water ripples (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Ken Schulze) In the macroscopic world, we ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis “for the discovery of macroscopic quantum tunneling and energy quantization in an electrical ...

WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a way to use laser light to pull a macroscopic object. Although microscopic optical tractor beams have been demonstrated before, this is one of the first times ...
