The Latest Breaking News on Physics

Quantum information science uses the physics that describes the smallest particles – such as electrons or photons – to potentially revolutionize computing and related technologies. This new field can be used for a wide range of applications, from developing new devices to data encryption.

The 56-qubit H2-1 computer has broken the previous record in the 'quantum supremacy' benchmark first set by Google in 2019.

New theoretical research finds that it's impossible to form a black hole with the energy of light particles alone, poking a hole in Einstein's theory of general relativity.

Physicists have struggled to understand the nature of time since the field began. But a new theoretical study suggests time could be an illusion woven at the quantum level.

A research team at EFPL LANES built used an indium selenide sheet with graphene electrodes to convert heat into electricity and hit temperatures as low as 100mK.

The 'heartbeats' of rapidly spinning neutron stars are usually highly regular, but occasionally, the spin of these dead star pulsars 'glitches.' Now, a 'twisted' model could explain this mystery.

Primordial black holes born from density fluctuations dating back to the Big Bang have been frustratingly elusive, but a new quantum clue has been discovered.

The first rule for understanding quantum mechanics, is that nobody understands quantum mechanics

University researchers say they have made a breakthrough in quantum technology that could pave the way for reliable, powerful computers.

Explore the complex world of quarks, hadrons, and nuclear fusion, and the potential existence of quark stars.

Quantum drums capable of storing and converting existing light data (i.e. fiber optic cables) may be integral to the future of a quantum-powered Internet with interconnected quantum computing devices.
