Quantum field theory (QFT) provides a comprehensive framework for describing the fundamental interactions of matter and radiation. In the context of atom‐field interactions, QFT elucidates how atoms ...

An international research team has sparked interest in the scientific community with results in quantum physics. In their current study, the researchers reinterpret the Higgs mechanism, which gives ...

A University of Sydney quantum physicist has developed a new approach to quantum error correction that could significantly ...

I keep coming back to a strange idea: what if everything we know about quantum physics is already encoded inside a single atom? Not in a mystical sense, but in the very real way that one tiny system ...

An international team of researchers has found a simple relationship between the rates of energy and information transmission across an interface connecting two quantum field theories. An ...

Gravity, long the sovereign force in the cosmic hierarchy, may be little more than a statistical side effect a byproduct of entropy, not a fundamental interaction. That is the provocative assertion ...

A Gravity Theory That Could Rewrite the Universe’s First Moments The first fraction of a second after the Big Bang has always ...

Mathematicians have struggled to understand the moduli space of graphs. A new paper uses tools from physics to peek inside. “That’s a super hard problem. It’s amazing they were able to,” said Dan ...

An old puzzle in particle physics has been solved: How can quantum field theories be best formulated on a lattice to optimally simulate them on a computer? The answer comes from AI. Quantum field ...

In an effort to solve the riddle of why we have subjective conciousness, scientists have develop myriad theories, including ones involving the quantum realm. A new theory suggests that consciousness ...

Does anyone understand quantum theory? The legendary Richard Feynman suggested that if you think you do, you haven’t understood it at all. But quantum theory is our best description of the microscopic ...
