Researchers use quantum computer to simulate fundamental forces, marking a major step toward solving complex physics.

An international team led by Innsbruck quantum physicist Peter Zoller, together with the US company QuEra Computing, has ...

Enter modern physics. A branch of physics that involves more radical thinking to explain things at microscopic and ...

Finding out whether gravity – and therefore space-time itself – is quantum in nature has long been thought impossible. But ...

It is a very comprehensive framework backed by extensive experimental evidence and is the foundation of modern particle physics. The Standard Model extends the principles of quantum mechanics ...

Here’s how it works. The Standard Model is the most complete description of the subatomic world that has ever been created in modern physics. The model was built through the 20th century on the ...

Bringing gravity into the fold has been the goal of generations of physicists, who have struggled to reconcile the incompatibility of two cornerstones of modern physics: quantum field theory and ...

Multiversal concepts pop up in several branches of modern physics. In quantum mechanics, for instance, a particle exists in a superposition of all possible states at once—until, that is ...

Sara Imari Walker receives funding from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the John Templeton Foundation relevant to the work in this article. She is also a member of the ...
