It's driving me nuts. Is the double bond constantly changing between all possibilities fast enough that it shortens the bond length for all, or are all the double bonds existing in all possible states ...

Interrelated Superposition and entanglement can be observed independently of the theoretical framework used to explain them. (Courtesy: iStock_Traffic-Analyzer) When a forest loses its trees, it also ...

Red and blue: a photon of two colours has been made. (Courtesy: iStock/-strizh-) Individual photons have been put into a quantum superposition of two different colours by a team of physicists in the ...

Topological defects are encountered in fields ranging from condensed-matter physics to cosmology. These broken-symmetry objects are intrinsically local, but theoretical work now suggests that ...

The world of quantum mechanics, where particles can be in two places at once or entangled with each other across vast distances, sounds spooky to us living in the macroscopic world of classical ...

An international team of researchers recently placed an entire molecule into a state of quantum superposition. This huge breakthrough represents the largest object to ever be observed in such a state ...
