For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...

At first glance, however, quantum physics does not really seem to adhere to this rule: Mathematically speaking, entropy in quantum systems always remains the same. A research team at TU Wien has now ...

This strange fact flies in the face of classical physics, and even led Albert Einstein to famously describe this quantum quirk as “spooky action at a distance.” This is what is known as “qua ...

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

“Eventually we figured out that this oscillation is a sign of a special type of excitation mode similar to the Higgs mode in high-energy physics. This is something we did not anticipate…That’s an ...
