In the quantum world, observing a particle is not a passive act. If you shine light on a quantum object to measure its position, photons scatter off it and disturb its motion. This disturbance is ...

Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter.

The future of quantum technology doesn’t depend on every home, business, or organization owning a superpowered computer. Its true potential lies in the internet — in a network of connections that ...

Rice researchers discovered that 3D light traps can trigger powerful quantum effects, enabling new ways for light and electrons to communicate and potentially revolutionizing quantum tech. Credit: ...

In particular, we are interested in using the neutron scattering results as a basis for comparison to different theoretical measures of quantum entanglement," Prof. Aronson said. The study was ...
