Ben leaped into a female bounty hunter this week, but the real Quantum Leap action took place in the present where we learn what it’s like to be on the other side of a leap. First up, the leap: Ben ...

Queen Mary University of London physicist Professor Chris White, along with his twin brother Professor Martin White from the University of Adelaide, have discovered a surprising connection between the ...

Yesterday, I settled into a spongy white chair at the Montgomery Summit to listen to a panel about a subject I know absolutely nothing about—quantum computing. My primary association with quantum ...

For all its promise, quantum computing suffers from its own fragility. Even the slightest disturbance can scramble the information encoded in a quantum bit. UC Santa Barbara physics professor Andrea ...

It’s hard to conceive of anything more basic than the fabric of spacetime that underpins the Universe, but theoretical physicists have been questioning this assumption. “Physicists have long been ...
