One of the most striking parallels lies in the idea that reality is not independent of the observer. Classical physics assumed an objective universe existing regardless of who observed it. Quantum ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, according to ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

Being a quantum pioneer is turning out to be an expensive experiment. Quantum is still years away from widespread enterprise ROI. In late 2024, a major pharmaceutical company invested $50 million in ...

I have been to more scientific conferences than I care to count, but a recent meeting held on the island of Helgoland to celebrate the centenary of quantum mechanics is one of the strangest – in a ...
