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

Many World’s lack wavefunction collapse might be the key to the measurement problem. The mystery of what happens when we go from a superposition to a definite state is known as the Measurement Problem ...

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 ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...

There are three types of quantum physicists: (1) those who think quantum mechanics is defaced by a so-called measurement problem; (2) those who think, as I do, that there is no measurement problem; ...

Quantum mechanics is rich with paradoxes and contradictions. It describes a microscopic world in which particles exist in a ...

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