Physicists have finally secured direct evidence that quantum spin ice, a long-hypothesized and highly unusual state of matter ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Paradoxically, his theory of relativity has become an essential tool for ...

Researchers found that gold “super atoms” can behave like the atoms in top-tier quantum systems—only far easier to scale. These tiny clusters can be customized at the molecular level, offering a ...

A research team at the University of Genova has developed the spin quantum battery, an energy storage system that uses the spin degrees of freedom of particles. The battery utilizes the spin ...

Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity does a great job at explaining gravity but it is thought to be incomplete ...

Higher spin theory aims to extend conventional gauge theories by incorporating an infinite tower of fields with spins greater than two. This framework offers an alternative approach to understanding ...

When a commercial quantum computer will surpass classical machines for real-world optimization is unknown, but probabilistic ...

The prevailing assumption has been that Einstein's theory of gravity must be modified, or 'quantized', in order to fit within quantum theory. This is the approach of two leading candidates for a ...

Researchers have uncovered clear evidence of exotic quantum excitations inside a rare 3D spin liquid, validating decades of ...
