A world-famous light experiment from 1801 has now been carried out with sound for the first time. Research by physicists in ...

While conventional computers store information in the form of bits, fundamental pieces of logic that take a value of either 0 or 1, quantum computers are based on qubits. These can have a state that ...

A team of scientists has succeeded in cooling traveling sound waves in wave-guides considerably further than has previously been possible using laser light. This achievement represents a significant ...

King, who is Oscar-nominated for his work on the historical epic, on how his work ranged from large- to small-scale moments. By Beatrice Verhoeven Awards Editor For sound editor Richard King, it ...

In the fast-evolving world of quantum computing, one of the biggest hurdles isn’t how fast calculations can be done—it’s how long you can hold onto the delicate quantum information in the first place.

Researchers at the University of East Anglia have proposed a new way of using quantum light to ‘see’ quantum sound. A new paper published today reveals the quantum-mechanical interplay between ...

When you turn on a lamp to brighten a room, you are experiencing light energy transmitted as photons, which are small, discrete quantum packets of energy. These photons must obey the sometimes strange ...
