Quantum Physics

Science in meter and verse

Spacetime may emerge from a more fundamental reality. Figuring out how could unlock the most urgent goal in physics—a quantum theory of gravity

From Neolithic constructions to atomic clocks, how humans measure time reveals what we value most

Runaway success and underfunding have led to growing pains for the preprint server

Scientists search for hidden variables underpinning our swerving moods and thoughts

After a decade of work, researchers have achieved the first ever experimental reconstruction of a quantum wave function

A new type of satellite opens mobile possibilities

Measuring the time it takes particles to travel between two points may be the best test yet for Bohmian mechanics

The prestigious award finally recognizes work that helped scientists understand climate change and, more broadly, find order in disorder

Quantum mechanics inspires us to speculate that interactions between entities, not entities in themselves, are fundamental to reality

Ordinary human dilemmas are tougher to solve than the most difficult problems of physics and mathematics
