A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.

Sound is usually treated as the most familiar of physical phenomena, the background noise of daily life rather than a frontier of fundamental physics. Yet in laboratories around the world, carefully ...

Researchers have proposed a new way of using quantum light to 'see' quantum sound. A new paper reveals the quantum-mechanical interplay between vibrations and particles of light, known as photons, in ...

An “echo” that arrives before you finish speaking sounds like a glitch. In quantum hardware, that kind of self-interference can be a feature. That odd timing sits at the heart of a new theoretical ...

In the fast-evolving world of quantum computing, one of the biggest hurdles isn’t how fast calculations can be done—it’s how long you can hold onto the delicate quantum information in the first place.

A new quantum system called giant superatoms could protect quantum information and enable entanglement between multiple ...

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if machines could hear the world in ways far beyond human ears? For years, computers have been good at recognizing speech, canceling noise and simulating ...

UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering postdoctoral researcher Hong Qiao is the first author of a new paper demonstrating deterministic phase control of the mechanical vibrations known as ...

Researchers have announced the creation of the first operating system designed for quantum networks: QNodeOS. The research marks a major step forward in transforming quantum networking from a ...
