Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story… A mind-bending theory called quantum immortality suggests that your consciousness shifts to parallel universes after you die. The theory is an ...

A new study reveals that some proposed signatures of quantum gravity may have an unexpected classical explanation.

If you asked a thousand physicists, they would all disagree. This statement could apply to any number of topics – whether the universe is infinite, what dark matter is made of, how to make wires ...

A study published in April 2026 in Proceedings of the Royal Society A shows a different possibility. Researchers demonstrated ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A new way of explaining gravity could bring us a step closer to resolving the heretofore irresolvable differences it has with ...

The performance of quantum computers could cap out after around 1,000 qubits, according to a new analysis published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Through new calculations, ...

During the 20th century, researchers pushed the frontiers of science further than ever before with great strides made in two very distinct fields. While physicists discovered the strange ...

The full, weird story of the quantum world is much too large for a single article, but the period from 1905, when Einstein first published his solution to the photoelectric puzzle, to the 1960s, when ...

The seeds of quantum theory were sown by Albert Einstein and others as early as 1905. But the theory came together properly 100 years ago in 1925 – and has exerted its influence ever since, as this ...

Quantum mechanics is simultaneously beautiful and frustrating. Its explanatory power is unmatched. Armed with the machinery of quantum theory, we have unlocked the secrets of atomic power, divined the ...

On the centennial of modern quantum mechanics, the Nobel Committee awarded the year’s most prestigious physics prize to an experiment that demonstrated how quantum effects play out on large ...
