Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...
During its teenage and young adult years—what is now referred to as its “classical” period—physics made a lot of mistakes. In the old physics, mass and energy were separately conserved; particles’ ...
It is a matter for celebration when two illustrious theoreticians such as Kip Thorne and Roger Blandford provide an in-depth description of the fundamentals of classical physics. Modern Classical ...
Quantum space and time Physicists have developed no-go theorems that limit quantum processes in space–time causality. (Courtesy: iStock/piranka) Physicists have developed a new theoretical framework ...
Physicists have built a quantum gas that behaves nothing like the substances we are used to, and that is exactly why it is ...
