Physicists may have just cracked open a hidden side of the quantum world. For decades, every known particle was thought to belong to one of two categories — bosons or fermions — but researchers have ...

A new quantum physics study reveals that simply changing a magnetic field over time can unlock entirely new forms of matter that don’t exist under normal conditions. By carefully “driving” materials ...

Physicists are rethinking one of quantum mechanics’ biggest puzzles: how fuzzy possibilities become definite reality. New research suggests that spontaneous “collapse” processes—possibly linked to ...

Scientists have created a powerful new way to control quantum systems, achieving the first-ever demonstration of quadsqueezing—an elusive fourth-order quantum effect. By combining simple forces in a ...

Imagine you could take a cosmic mixing bowl and cook up reality from scratch. It would be a strange kind of baking, with the end results including everything from space-time and satellites to cats and ...

On April 23, 2026, Dave Butler, 53, passed away at home surrounded by his family. He is survived by his wife, Mindy; his children Teagan, Quintin, and Blake; his father Gerald (Jerry); and his sister ...

It is 2050. The Chicago region is the beating pulse of Earth’s most prized commodity — information. We are still a trading center, having moved deftly in the 20th century from stockyards to steel to ...

As a quantum physicist, my work has led me to believe we could drastically enhance human consciousness, the inexplicable machinations that make you feel like you. It explains everything from your most ...

When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it falls, and when and where it will land. But if you were to squeeze that ...
