Quantum mechanics has always had a way of making even the sharpest minds stop and scratch their heads. In the everyday world, ...

It seems quantum mechanics and thermodynamics cannot be true simultaneously. In a new publication, UT researchers use photons in an optical chip to demonstrate how both theories can be true at the ...

A paradox at the heart of quantum physics has been tested in an extraordinary fashion, pushing the boundaries of human intuition beyond breaking point by measuring a pulse of light in 37 dimensions.

Quantum entanglement, a bewildering phenomenon where particles become interconnected regardless of the distance separating ...

Photonics World Twente photonics experiment resolves longstanding quantum paradox 05 Jul 2023 Theoretical solution to quantum-thermodynamics dichotomy reinforced with optical chip demonstration.

A classic quantum experiment done near a black hole would create a paradox, physicists report. But not if the black hole collapses quantum states.

Generations of researchers have tried to create a quantum theory of gravity, and their work has produced sophisticated ...
