A new experiment using ultracold rubidium atoms found that a quantum object in free fall behaves consistently with Einstein's ...

About 150 entangled ions turned mechanical motion into an exceptionally sensitive probe of weak electric fields.

The hidden world of quantum mechanics exists at scales many orders of magnitude smaller than living organisms, yet scientists ...

An international team including Nobel Prize-winning physicist Professor Sir Roger Penrose has observed a long-predicted effect of gravity on a falling quantum object for the first time. The result ...

Quantum equivalence principle test hits a milestone: an atom chip at Ben-Gurion University split rubidium atoms between free ...

Scientists have used high-performance computing at large scales to analyze a quantum photonics experiment. In specific terms, this involved the tomographic reconstruction of experimental data from a ...

A silicon-photonic processor captured energy levels, a symmetry transition and topological behavior using one spectroscopy ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

Quantum networks could protect messages with theoretically hack-proof encryption, as well as help quantum devices operate in ...

Scientists at Paderborn University have for the first time used high-performance computing (on the right in the picture the Paderborn supercomputer Noctua) to analyse a quantum photonics experiment on ...
