Olival Freire Jr is a professor of physics and the history of physics at the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil. What makes matter stable? Why are atoms as they are? Why do different materials vary ...

A century ago, the strange behavior of atoms and elementary particles led physicists to formulate a new theory of nature. That theory, quantum mechanics, found immediate success, proving its worth ...

A record-breaking number of quantum bits, or qubits, have been proven to be entangled inside a quantum computer. There have been previous attempts to achieve this with a relatively large number of ...

Quantum computers still can’t do much. Almost every time researchers have found something the high-tech machines should one day excel at, a classical algorithm comes along that can do it just as well ...

When scientists at Caltech revealed that they had assembled the world’s largest neutral-atom quantum computer, the announcement sent waves across both academia and industry. By trapping and ...

November 19, 2024 — Quantum computing company Atom Computing announced that together with Microsoft they have entangled 24 logical qubits, which they said sets a ...
