There is no measurement that can directly observe the wave function of a quantum mechanical system, but the wave function is ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

Even given a set of possible quantum states for our cosmos, it's impossible for us to determine which one of them is correct ...

A hundred years ago this week, at the height of the quantum revolution, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger submitted a ...

The same phenomenon was later confirmed for neutrons, helium atoms, and even large molecules, making matter-wave diffraction ...

Quantum state diffusion framework makes it possible to characterize quantum measurement in terms of entropy production ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...

Quantum mechanics, the theory that governs the subatomic world, rests on a persistent paradox. It describes particles that ...

A stable graphene signal suggests some quantum particles can remember past interactions, a key step toward quantum computing.

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...
