Physicists show knotted cosmic strings may have dominated the early universe before collapsing to create matter—a theory ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...

If these knots had a slight bias toward matter over antimatter, their unraveling could help explain the matter-antimatter imbalance, the paper stated. A thorough mathematical investigation of this ...

Quantum researchers in the twenty-first century are part of an international network that requires a great deal of interaction and communication. Around one hundred publications on the topic are ...

Whenever someone talks about black holes, they almost always talk about the event horizon and the singularity. After all, ...

By miniaturizing THz spectroscopy to a chip-scale platform, James McIver’s lab has uncovered a promising new method for controlling quantum materials. Under certain conditions, two-dimensional (2D) ...

The standard interpretation of a null state, or empty state, posits it as devoid of structure. This paper introduces a ...

Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) CEO Sundar Pichai said the tech giant's quantum computing chip, known as Willow, has achieved the “first-ever verifiable quantum advantage.” “Willow ran the ...

IonQ announced a $2 billion equity raise at a premium price, materially extending its cash runway. JPMorgan Chase is running a $1.5 trillion tech investment project, including a direct play on quantum ...
