For the first time, researchers have produced radium-containing molecules in a cold, laser-ready state, enabling high-precision tabletop measurements. The work...

Physicists have reported an unusual “excess” signal of high-energy gamma rays emitted by more than a dozen heavy, unstable nuclei...

At Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), physicists have introduced a new way to organize the notorious “Feynman integrals” that underpin...

Quantum technologies promise transformative advances in computing, sensing, and secure information processing. Yet one stubborn bottleneck remains: steering the quantum...

A truly useful quantum computer should run any algorithm with the flexibility of an ordinary laptop. Now, researchers have demonstrated...

Quantum computing promises fault tolerance, but only if information is protected against the relentless local errors that plague today’s devices....

A new approach to quantum photonics promises to make complex optical chips faster to design and more reliable to fabricate....

A new study hints at a practical route to building hybrid quantum networks that connect different kinds of single-photon emitters—specifically,...

Crystal symmetry may determine whether hydrogen inside vanadium behaves like a classical particle or a quantum wave, according to a...

Solid-state carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are moving toward mainstream use in electroluminescent light-emitting diodes (LEDs), thanks to their photostability, low...
