Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...

In this video, we explore the meaning of quantum physics and the true nature of reality through key concepts in quantum mechanics, including: - The "language" gap of quantum mechanics - The ...

Quantum theory is often sold as a story about tiny particles, but its real disruption lands squarely on our everyday sense of what is real. At the smallest scales, the equations that power lasers, ...

(via PBS Space Time) It’s hard to interpret the strange results of quantum mechanics, though many have tried. Interpretations range from the outlandish—like the multiple universes of Many Worlds, to ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

Many World’s lack wavefunction collapse might be the key to the measurement problem. The mystery of what happens when we go from a superposition to a definite state is known as the Measurement Problem ...

The researchers conclude that assessments made by historical actors can serve as a barometer of the changing consensus of interpretations of quantum mechanics. Before Erwin Schrödinger published his ...

The investigation into quantum mechanics and identity in physics explores the profound implications of particle indistinguishability and the emergence of distinct identities from fundamentally ...

Over the last few years, the box office has been dominated by films like "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" that explore ideas of parallel universes, quantum worlds and alternate lives. There's ...

Get up to speed on the weird and wonderful world of quantum mechanics in this one-day intensive workshop. Our line-up of six leading quantum experts will explain this famously complex field in easily ...
