Anomalous” heat flow, which at first appears to violate the second law of thermodynamics, gives physicists a way to detect quantum entanglement without destroying it.

Up until now, the simulation hypothesis, which has occasionally received backing from the likes of Elon Musk and Neil ...

Every year in October our UCSB Physics faculty present an explanation of the Nobel Prize in Physics for that year.

This week, researchers published LIGO findings that hint at the existence of second-generation black holes. Astronomers captured a spectacular new image of the Milky Way across a wide range of radio ...

Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the dreams of science fiction enthusiasts when he began to study the limits of ...

The proof, known to be so hard that a mathematician once offered 10 martinis to whoever could figure it out, uses number ...

If we become quantum tomorrow, data is lost today. Quantum comes down to size and efficiency. Current computers approach ...

The uncertainty inherent to quantum mechanics has long left physicists wondering whether the observations we make on the ...

While a quantum computer could factor a 2048-bit RSA key in less than a week with fewer than a million qubits, there are ...

It's a well-known fact that quantum calculations are difficult, but one would think that quantum computers would facilitate the process. In most cases, this is true.

The IAEA has published “Radiation Oncology Physics: a handbook for teachers and students” aiming at providing the minimum level of knowledge expected of a medical physicist specializing in radiation ...
