During the 2024-25 school year, students in Southern Adventist University’s physics club taught lessons about the basics of Quantum Information Science and Technology (QUIST) at three local schools.

Theories of quantum mechanics predict that some particles can exist in superpositions, which essentially means that they can be in more than one state at once. When a particle's state is measured, ...

Instructor: Mahdi Hosseini Course Description: This course provides an introduction to Quantum Engineering, integrating foundational quantum theory with real-world applications in modern technology.

Quantum immortality is a controversial and fascinating concept that emerges from the interpretations of quantum mechanics, suggesting that consciousness could survive beyond physical death in an ...

Technological devices are getting ever smaller, but as they approach the scale at which quantum physics matters, our understanding of how they interact with their environment evaporates. James Millen ...

One hundred years ago on a quiet, rocky island, German physicist Werner Heisenberg helped set in motion a series of scientific developments that would touch nearly all of physics. There, Heisenberg ...

In the 1920s, when quantum mechanics was young, physicists Jane Dewey and Laura Chalk performed some of the first experimental tests of the theory, based on a phenomenon called the Stark effect. Later ...

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 ...

Cutting-edge atomic clocks may soon reveal a strange possibility: time itself behaving like a quantum object, existing in ...

From Einstein’s spacetime to quantum entanglement, real physics offers more than mind-bending theories—it’s a goldmine for storytelling. Writers are weaving these concepts into worlds where scientific ...
