Batteries could charge up by relying on a quantum effect known as indefinite causal order, whereby the laws of cause and effect are scrambled and power can move through the system quicker. When you ...

Light particle hits 37 dimensions at once, and scientists proved it
A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, ...

Physicists found light-like particles with 37-dimensional behavior
Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, ...
Quantum mechanics forms the bedrock of modern physics, describing the behaviour of matter and energy at the smallest scales. Its counterintuitive concepts, such as wave‐particle duality, superposition ...
Can a particle be in two different places at the same time? In quantum physics, it can: Quantum theory allows objects to be in different states at the same time – or more precisely: in a superposition ...
For more than a decade, physicists have argued (and counter-argued) that a subatomic particle can be separated from certain quantum properties, such as its spin—a phenomenon known as the Cheshire cat ...
There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...
