The Latest Breaking News on Physics

Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China have managed to entangle a record 51 qubits. More importantly, the qubits weren't just entangled in pairs, but as a single system, a required step on the road to more useful quantum computing.

Nottingham University researchers are simulating black holes with a tiny vortex inside a bell jar of superfluid helium

An exotic, ultracold state of matter on Earth is helping scientists study the behavior of "fuzzy" dark matter.

By shining a strong beam of light through two chemical compounds, scientists discovered a unique new state of matter made of particles called excitons.

There’s some potentially big news on the hunt for dark matter. Astronomers may have a handle on what makes this mysterious cosmic stuff: strange particles called “axions.”

A new experiment by IBM computers shows that quantum computers could soon outperform classical digital computers at practical tasks in the next two years.

Can we build a quantum computer whose information unit is, colloquially speaking, sound? According to a paper published in Science this month, it should be possible. The problem is that researchers can manipulate electrons using electric currents, magnetic fields, etc., and they can manipulate photons with mirrors, lenses, etc. –…

Physicists at the Large Hadron Collider are closing in on an explanation for why we live in a universe of matter and not antimatter.

The incident paved the way for the current version of Foucault pendulum.
