Quantum physics underlies technologies from the laser to the smartphone. The International Year of Quantum marks a century of scientific developments.

Researchers at Empa have taken a significant step toward practical quantum computing by creating and manipulating Heisenberg ...

In a new publication in Nature Materials, an international team of researchers has developed groundbreaking artificial chains ...

In 1926 Heisenberg joined Bohr at the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen. This turned out to be one of the most productive periods in Heisenberg's life. In 1927 he was puzzling over ...

Physics has a problem – their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, the German Research Foundation is ...

Phase transitions, like water freezing into ice, are a familiar part of our world. But in quantum systems, they can behave ...

Heisenberg, Max Born and Pascual Jordan ... that they describe the same physics? Contributing to the discussion, Slobodan Perovic argues that providing a fully fledged general proof was ...

It also marks the centenary of Werner Heisenberg’s seminal work in modern physics. In recent years there have been dramatic developments in quantum communications, cryptography and computing ...

Empa researchers from the nanotech@surfaces laboratory have experimentally recreated two fundamental quantum physics models originally inspired b ...

Astrophysics will enter the laboratory in laser-plasma experiments that probe the physics of planetary interiors or the dynamics of supernova shocks. Heisenberg and Euler could see this milestone ...

Today, physicists are still asking themselves whether quantum mechanics needs hypercomplex numbers. FAU researchers Ece Ipek ...
