A research team has, for the first time in the world, elucidated the microscopic mechanism by which quantum order is lost and ...

A theoretical paper posted to arXiv proposes that quantum coherence, the fragile property that powers quantum computing and ...

A research team has identified environmental interactions as the cause of ultrafast electronic decoherence in solids, a long-standing open question in quantum physics.

Attempts to understand quantum phase transitions in open systems usually rely on real‑time Lindbladian evolution, which tracks how a quantum state changes as it relaxes toward a steady state. This ...

Quantum states are notoriously fragile, and can be destroyed simply through interactions, measurements, and exposure to their ...

"Open-source collaboration lowers barriers and accelerates progress," said Greg Dick, Co-founder and CEO of OQD. "Working with industry experts from WD (Western Digital) and creative entrepreneurs ...

The extraction of work (i.e., usable energy) from quantum processes is a key focus of quantum thermodynamics research, which explores the application of thermodynamics laws to quantum systems.

Quantum systems tend to become less “quantum-y” as they interact with their environment. So when developing a mathematical description, it’s usually simpler just to view them as being closed off from ...

Roundtable says scaling quantum systems will hinge on manufacturing, calibration, and quantum-classical integration ...

Time’s passage is non-negotiable. Its flow marks the progress of our lives, moving clearly in one direction. It is, by nature, asymmetrical. In this way, we perceive it to move like an arrow, ...
