A new study shows how entangled light slashes the number of measurements needed to learn the noise of a quantum system. Researchers at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) le ...

Scientists using a continent-wide array of radio telescopes have made an extremely precise measurement of the curvature of space caused by the Sun’s gravity. Their technique promises a major ...

Scientists working on Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment released the world's most precise measurement yet of the magnetic moment of the muon, bringing particle physics closer to the ultimate showdown ...

This morning on BBC Radio 4, the mathematician Roger Penrose, physicist Basil Hiley, and philosopher Simon Saunders had a lively discussion about the “measurement problem in physics” with broadcaster ...

Precision measurements in atomic and ion physics have become a cornerstone for testing the limits of our understanding of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and the Standard Model. By harnessing ...

During the mid- to late-twentieth century, quantum physicists picked apart the unified theory of physics that Einstein's theory of relativity offered. The physics of the large was governed by gravity, ...

Quantum physics, celebrated for its predictive success, has also become notorious for being an inscrutable mass of paradoxes. One of the founders of the theory, Niels Bohr, stated that "those who are ...

In physics, Albert Einstein is famous for two things: developing the theory of relativity, and hating quantum mechanics. Relativity is a colossal achievement, with the special theory of 1905 putting ...
