A new "geometry‑based" quantum swap gate makes neutral‑atom computers far less sensitive to laser noise.

I keep coming back to a strange idea: what if everything we know about quantum physics is already encoded inside a single atom? Not in a mystical sense, but in the very real way that one tiny system ...

Trapped atom experiment shows that quantum motion could power faster and more powerful computers of the future.

Scientists have pulled off a mind-bending quantum experiment that sounds almost impossible: they showed that tiny metal ...

Physicists may have just cracked open a hidden side of the quantum world. For decades, every known particle was thought to ...

Atom Computing is working with Microsoft on fault-tolerant quantum computers. (Atom Computing Photo) Microsoft and Atom Computing say they’ve reached a new milestone in their effort to build ...

Libby Heaney’s Growler (2024) is a glass sculpture that looks anything but. Despite its crystalline surface, it appears as if viscous, gummy and glutinous as it sags and drips down the side of its ...

Tue, December 23, 2025 at 1:00 PM UTC Because the goal is so lofty, tracking its progress has also been difficult. To help chart a course toward truly transformative quantum technology and mark ...

Jim Al-Khalili on how writers and metaphors translate quantum mechanics into stories.

Creating quantum entanglement inside a solid material is tricky in the lab – but crystals buried in the earth could be ...
