Quantum computing has huge promise from a technical perspective, but the practical benefits are less clear.
Studying the brief and tiny quantum effects that drive living systems could one day lead to new approaches to treatments and technologies.
Recent suggests quantum computers could solve problems with breathtaking speed by comparison to current supermodels.
So far researchers have only been able to control a handful of qubits — the basic units of information in a quantum computer. A new approach could help them control millions at a time.
We identify an experimental method which could finally reveal whether objects much larger than atoms - such as humans or animals - can exist in several places at once.
Google claims quantum supremacy – IBM says not so fast. One researcher explains why he doesn’t see quantum computers outpacing classical computers any time soon … and maybe not ever.
The discovery and development of optical tweezers won the 2018 Nobel Prize in physics. Now physicists are using this tool to crack some of the fundamental questions behind how the universe works.
