Let’s go! Imagine flipping a coin. In classical physics, the coin is either heads or tails. But in quantum physics, the coin can be both heads and tails at the same time – until you look at it.

In classical physics, the coin is either heads or tails. But in quantum physics, the coin can be both heads and tails at the same time – until you look at it. This strange and counterintuitive ...

In 1925, quantum mechanics, the scientific theory that describes the unintuitive rules of physics on very small scales, began to crystallize in the minds of physicists. Beginning in that year ...

AI is the technology trend of the moment—but what’s 10 years down the road? Some experts say quantum computing will be the next game changer. WSJ visited IBM’s quantum computing lab to learn ...
