Physicists have pushed one of the strangest ideas in science into new territory, holding tiny clumps of metal in a quantum limbo that recalls Schrödinger’s famous cat. Instead of a single atom or ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

A new study explains how a century of strange physics has evolved from a cat paradox into the foundation of modern technology. It shows how "quantum weirdness" is now being used to build better ...

A new technique improves the reliability of cat qubits by squeezing their probabilistic states. This could improve their reliability and lifetime, and pave the way for accurate quantum computing. When ...

Following the release of Microsoft's latest quantum computing chip last week, Amazon has unveiled its first one today, after four years in the making. It's called Ocelot – because it's got 'cat qubits ...

Scalable technology The antimony cat is embedded inside a silicon quantum chip, similar to the ones we have in our computers and mobile phones, but adapted to give access to the quantum state of a ...

In a scene from the movie Gladiator, Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, worried about the fragility of his empire, tells his general, Maximus: “There was once a dream that was Rome. You could only whisper ...
