For the last 80 years, the theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED), which describes all electromagnetic interactions, has ...

Lattice gauge theory provides a powerful framework for discretising gauge theories to explore the fundamental interactions that underlie particle physics and complex condensed matter phenomena. By ...

A team of physicists has designed quantum algorithms that can model one of the most elusive behaviors in nature: a photon ...

The background: To understand how complex materials behave at the atomic level, physicists calculate what are known as ...

For the first time, scientists have directly imaged the quantum process underlying superconductivity, a phenomenon in which ...

By adapting ideas from gauge theory, the researchers show how quantum information spread-out across a machine can be measured using only local checks, significantly lowering computing overhead. Their ...

Physicists have built a new type of digital-analogue quantum simulator in Google’s laboratory, which can be used to study physical processes with unprecedented precision and flexibility. Two ...

Theory, computation, and simulation are foundational to modern energy research. Theoretical understanding reveals why materials and systems behave as they do, predicting performance before experiments ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Our universe has cracks, linking us to others, a quantum physics theory says. This opens the door to another version of you existing in some other ...

A ball tossed into the air follows a path that classical physics can track with confidence. Shrink that ball down to the size ...
