Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

Students, staff and CSIRO scientists at the M'Bunghara school. CSIRO scientists Kymberley Scroggie and Jim Harris visited the local M'Bunghara school ...

Scientists may have spotted a long-sought triplet superconductor — a material that can transmit both electricity and electron spin with zero resistance. That ability could dramatically stabilize ...

What if the most complex problems plaguing industries today—curing diseases, optimizing global supply chains, or even securing digital communication—could be solved in a fraction of the time it takes ...

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 ...

Professor Daniel Blumenthal's lab develops chip-scale components that can bring the power and precision of quantum science outside of the tightly controlled environment of the lab. (Santa Barbara, ...

Quantum computing has long occupied the edges of our collective imagination – frequently mentioned, rarely understood. For many, it remains a distant prospect rather than an immediate concern. But ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. You've probably heard the term "quantum computing" at some point and wondered what it meant. It's not a term that's easy to understand, and ...

Quantum computers may help us see more exoplanets – and see them in more detail too. Astronomers have now found thousands of planets beyond our solar system, but they anticipate that there are ...

Technical sessions moved from fundamentals such as concepts such as ‘superposition’ and ‘entanglement’ to applications in ...
