For over a decade, researchers have considered boson sampling—a quantum computing protocol involving light particles—as a key ...

What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by the limitations of quantum mechanics when trying to study densely packed atoms? At EPFL, you get a metamaterial, an engineered material that ...

Imagine detecting a single trillionth of a gram of a molecule—like an amino acid—using just electricity and a chip smaller ...

Caltech professor of chemistry Sandeep Sharma and colleagues from IBM and the RIKEN Center for Computational Science in Japan ...

Scientists at EPFL have created a revolutionary biosensor that doesn't need a light source—it makes its own glow using ...

“They have argued that quantum probability theory better explains certain cognitive effects observed in the social sciences than classical probability theory,” Ghose tells Physics World.. “[But] most ...

In quantum physics, observing a system forces it to collapse into one state. ... “Quantum probability waves are waves after all—why not model them with sound?” said Padlewski.

Optical biosensors use light waves as a probe to detect molecules, and are essential for precise medical diagnostics, ...
