Can quantum systems become more disordered, as thermodynamics would predict? Yes, they can - if a proper definition of "entropy" is used. It is one of the most important laws of nature that we know: ...

A researcher at Kyushu University and his collaborators have shown that continuous parameters in quantum gravity may not be ...

Quantum physics is a very diverse field: it describes particle collisions shortly after the Big Bang as well as electrons in solid materials or atoms far out in space. But not all quantum objects are ...

The machines use the laws of quantum physics to process information ​in ways that can solve certain complex problems far ...

Researchers in Sweden have developed a machine-learning approach that embeds the laws of physics directly into neural ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Scientists think a new framework for quantum gravity could offer clues about a mysterious 5th fundamental force of nature.

In the strange, often unintuitive world of quantum physics, one mystery has stood out for decades: Can quantum entanglement be manipulated in a reversible way, like energy in a perfect heat engine?

Time has always seemed like the one thing physics could count on. Matter changes, stars die, particles flicker in and out, ...

A team of theoretical researchers used thermal effective theory to demonstrate that quantum entanglement follows universal rules across all dimensions. Their study was published online on August 5, in ...

The Laboratory team’s quantum “demon” uses information about a quantum system’s state and measurement results to drive similarly unusual processes, reversing the usual arrow of time in a quantum ...

The world of quantum video games is vast – there are hundreds that are either inspired by quantum mechanics or use quantum ...
