A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Quantum theory is often sold as a story about tiny particles, but its real disruption lands squarely on our everyday sense of what is real. At the smallest scales, the equations that power lasers, ...

In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of modern quantum mechanics, a survey asked physicists for their takes on some hot questions in quantum theory. Reading time 4 minutes In July 1925—exactly a ...

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

Instructor: Mahdi Hosseini Course Description: This course provides an introduction to Quantum Engineering, integrating foundational quantum theory with real-world applications in modern technology.

This publication is essentially a compilation of the lecture notes taken by several people at the introductory course in quantum mechanics given by the authors in conjunction with Los Alamos ...

Quantum mechanics remains a cornerstone of modern physics, providing a framework for understanding phenomena at the microscopic scale. At the heart of its formulation lies the concept of Hilbert ...

One hundred years ago on a quiet, rocky island, German physicist Werner Heisenberg helped set in motion a series of scientific developments that would touch nearly all of physics. There, Heisenberg ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics. John Clarke, ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

For many of us, advanced physics can be tough to understand to begin with, which makes it all the more impressive whenever someone earns a Nobel Prize for advancing the field even further. The latest ...
