The universe is a strange, beautiful place—rich with possibilities and governed by the odd rules of quantum mechanics. One of ...

In the quest toward finding the correct theory of quantum gravity, physicists have been testing the holographic principle which, they say, is a key property of any valid theory of quantum gravity.

Besides particles like sterile neutrinos, axions and weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate for ...

It’s been difficult to find important questions that quantum computers can answer faster than classical machines, but a new algorithm appears to do so for some critical optimization tasks.

Researchers have shown that abstract mathematical functions from the frontiers of theoretical physics have a real-world use ...
