Experts believe entangling a brain with a quantum computer could finally reveal where consciousness comes from.

Students and faculty of UC Santa Barbara’s physics department gathered in Corwin Pavilion for the department’s annual Nobel Prize-focused colloquium on Oct. 14. This year’s event was particularly spec ...

Quantum mechanics has always had a way of making even the sharpest minds stop and scratch their heads. In the everyday world, you expect objects to follow straightforward rules. A ball thrown into the ...

For over a century, quantum mechanics has challenged our established notions of physics. At its core are questions that unsettle our understanding of the universe: when does a quantum particle ...

The story begins with the black hole information paradox. According to relativity, anything that falls into a black hole is ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Physicists have come up with a new experiment to test the quantum twin paradox using a pair of atoms in a superposition. It's an interesting idea because it could tell us ...
