Quantum theory has long treated time as a silent backdrop, a parameter that never jitters even as particles flicker in and out of superposition. A new line of work now argues that this picture is ...

Electrons can freeze into strange geometric crystals and then melt back into liquid-like motion under the right quantum conditions. Researchers identified how to tune these transitions and even ...

Quantum engineers are starting to think bigger, literally, as they look for ways to move fragile quantum information without losing it to the noisy environment. Giant “superatoms” that couple to light ...

The fragility and laws of quantum physics generally make the characterization of quantum systems time‑consuming. Furthermore, when a quantum system is measured, it is destroyed in the process. A ...

Scientists have discovered a new quantum state of matter that connects two significant areas of physics, potentially leading to advancements in computing, sensing and materials science. The ...
