Planck's constant is one of the fundamental constants that sets up all the "rules" for how things work in our universe. (It’s named after the theoretical physicist Max Planck, who is best known for ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Dimensions typically refer to the measurable extent of height, width, and depth, defining an object's presence in physical space. However, in the weird and wonderful quantum world ...

The IVO quantum inertia drive is in orbit now and will be turned on within one to ten weeks and then operated for many weeks or months. The IVO quantum inertia drive is very controversial because it ...

(Nanowerk News) Throwing a ball into the air, one can transfer arbitrary energy to the ball such that it flies higher or lower. One of the oddities of quantum physics is that particles, e.g., ...

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics to University of California, Berkeley professor John Clarke and two other scientists for identifying macroscopic ...

A device that eavesdrops on the quantum whispers of atoms could form the basis of a new type of quantum computer. Stanford physicists have developed a "quantum microphone" so sensitive that it can ...

Stanford physicists have developed a “quantum microphone” that can measure individual particles of sound, called phonons. The device could lead to smaller, efficient quantum computers that operate by ...
