Physicists have found a way to measure how long ultra-fast quantum events actually take—without using a clock at all.

The measurement problem in quantum mechanics has challenged physicists and philosophers for almost a century. The measurement problem refers to the probablictic collapse of the deterministic wave ...

EPFL physicists have found a way to measure the time involved in quantum events and found it depends on the symmetry of the material. "The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for ...

The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for thousands of years, and the advent of quantum mechanics has not simplified the ...

The quantum world and our everyday world are very different places. In a publication that appeared as the “Editor’s Suggestion” in Physical Review A this week, UvA physicists Jasper van Wezel and ...

A hundred years ago this week, at the height of the quantum revolution, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger submitted a ...

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.
