How a group of free-thinking physicists in the 1970s helped shape quantum physics. In seeing quantum entanglement as central to physics, The Fundamental Fysiks Group were decades ahead of their time.

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...

We live in an extraordinary era, one where science and technology advance at a staggering pace. Discoveries of invisible ...

Physicist Paul Davies’s Quantum 2.0: The past, present and future of quantum physics ends on a beautiful note. “To be aware of the quantum world is to glimpse something of the majesty and elegance of ...

RIT / Vertically Integrated Projects/ NOVA NEXUS: Photonics, Astrophysics, and Quantum Technologies for Scientific Discovery This Vertically Integrated Project (VIP) engages undergraduate students in ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours.

On the morning of June 28, 1914, a Bosnian Serb student named Gavrilo Princip stood outside Moritz Schiller’s delicatessen near the Latin Bridge in Sarajevo. Sometime after 10:45 A.M., a motorcade ...

In the 1960s, a group of physicists and historians began a massive project meant to catalogue and record the history of quantum physics. It was called Sources for History of Quantum Physics (SHQP). As ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to ...

In seeing quantum entanglement as central to physics, The Fundamental Fysiks Group were decades ahead of their time. National Corporate funding for NOVA is provided by Carlisle Companies. Major ...
