While randomising a deck of cards gets more difficult as you add more cards, it turns out that the same isn't true for the ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

For the first time, an international team of scientists has experimentally simulated spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) at zero temperature using a superconducting quantum processor. This achievement ...

This guide aims to break down the essential concepts of quantum mechanics, its historical development, and the philosophical questions it raises. Whether you’re a student, a curious reader, or someone ...

Noncovalent interactions (NCI) play a central role in numerous physical, chemical, and biological phenomena. An accurate description of NCI is the key to success for any theoretical study in such ...

The armchair physicist’s first foray into the concept of quantum mechanics was likely the very peculiar theory of Schrödinger’s Cat. It was first suggested by Austrian-Irish physicist Erwin ...

What does quantum mechanics, the most successful theory ever proposed by physics, teach us about reality? The starting point for most philosophers of physics is that quantum mechanics must somehow ...

I'll wait. Quantum mechanics is completely silent on how the electron changes orbitals; it just blandly states that it does and tells us what outcomes to expect when that happens.
