A team of physicists affiliated with multiple institutions in China has measured a pulse of light in 37 dimensions. In their ...

For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...

An international collaboration sheds new light on the relationship between quantum theory and thermodynamics. The research group demonstrated that while the laws of quantum theory alone do not ...

A paradox at the heart of quantum physics has been tested in an extraordinary fashion, pushing the boundaries of human ...

The second law of thermodynamics, a cornerstone of modern physics, states that entropy—a measure of disorder—never spontaneously decreases. It governs everything from the efficiency of engines to the ...

In the process, their experiment included photons in 37 dimensions, taking science even further down this strange quantum ...

A search for particles’ most paradoxical quantum states led researchers to construct a 37-dimensional experiment ...

Entropy always increases, but in quantum systems, traditional entropy measures seem constant. TU Wien researchers resolved this paradox by considering Shannon entropy, which accounts for the ...
