Researchers at Stanford University have developed a “quantum microphone” that’s sensitive enough to measure the individual particles of sound known as “phonons.” “We expect this device to allow new ...

Researchers at Stanford have developed a "quantum microphone" which can detect the smallest known units of sound -- packets of vibrational energy called phonons. The device could form the basis for ...

A team of scientists has succeeded in cooling traveling sound waves in wave-guides considerably further than has previously been possible using laser light. This achievement represents a significant ...

Physicist and cosmologist Paul Davies introduces his new book Quantum 2.0, charting the strange and revolutionary principles of quantum mechanics and how they are reshaping technology, science, and ...

When you turn on a lamp to brighten a room, you are experiencing light energy transmitted as photons, which are small, discrete quantum packets of energy. These photons must obey the sometimes strange ...

Researchers at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory have invented an innovative way for different types of quantum technology to “talk” to each other using sound. The study, ...

Here’s a little-known fact about quantum computing: It sounds remarkably warm. While much of the focus in quantum research has been on the race to build a useful quantum computer, one that far ...

HOT SPRINGS, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Between COVID-19 and a tumultuous political and social landscape, the mental health crisis in America has worsened like never before. In fact, the United States ...

Peering into a near future where quantum science blends with AI. What are the implications for science, society and the arts?
