Manuel Endres, professor of physics at Caltech, specializes in finely controlling single atoms using devices known as optical tweezers. He and his colleagues use the tweezers, made of laser light, to ...

In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of ...

Harvard and PSI scientists have managed to freeze normally fleeting quantum states in time, creating a pathway to control them using pure electronic tricks and laser precision. Laser pulses trigger ...

A single nanoparticle made of glass (a white point near the center of the photo) is confined in an optical potential created with a focused laser beam. By detecting the light scattered by the ...

A new study published in Scientific Reports simulates particle creation in an expanding universe using IBM quantum computers, ...

Researchers have developed a novel high-energy particle detection instrumentation approach that leverages the power of quantum sensors -- devices capable of precisely detecting single particles. To ...

Marking a major milestone for silicon-based quantum technology, the system has been installed at the UK’s National Quantum Computing Centre The system integrates the company’s Quantum Processing Unit ...

Quantum computers are beginning to become powerful tools for studying some of the most fundamental forces in the universe – and some of the trickiest to understand. Two experiments have used them to ...
