Quantum Physics

Superdeterminism, a radical quantum hypothesis, says our “choices” are illusory

A new, more robust approach to creating these bizarre constructs brings them one step closer to practical applications

The basic concept of quantum spin provides an understanding of a vast range of physical phenomena

There is more to the bobsled, luge and skeleton events than merely sliding down steep, icy slopes

The formulas describe the complex behavior of a liquid when it meets a boundary

A radical quantum hypothesis casts doubt on objective reality

Science in meter and verse

Spacetime may emerge from a more fundamental reality. Figuring out how could unlock the most urgent goal in physics—a quantum theory of gravity

From Neolithic constructions to atomic clocks, how humans measure time reveals what we value most

Runaway success and underfunding have led to growing pains for the preprint server

Scientists search for hidden variables underpinning our swerving moods and thoughts
