Evidence of “negative time” observed in quantum experiments

Evidence of “negative time” observed in quantum experiments

Scientists just measured something that sounds impossible. When light passes through atoms, it can spend what appears to be less than zero time interacting with them. Yes, negative time. And no, this isn’t science fiction. Picture a stadium crowd doing the wave. People stand and sit in sequence, but somehow the wave moves faster than any single person. …

Scientists just proved a fundamental quantum rule for the first time

Scientists just proved a fundamental quantum rule for the first time

Researchers at Tampere University and their collaborators from Germany and India have experimentally confirmed that angular momentum is conserved when a single photon is converted into a pair – validating a key principle of physics at the quantum level for the first time. This breakthrough opens new possibilities for creating complex quantum states useful in computing, communication, and sensing. Conservation …

US testing quantum navigation aboard secretive military space plane

US testing quantum navigation aboard secretive military space plane

A US military space plane, the X-37B orbital test vehicle, is due to embark on its eighth flight into space on August 21, 2025. Much of what the X-37B does in space is secret. But it serves partly as a platform for cutting-edge experiments. One of these experiments is a potential alternative to GPS that makes use of quantum science …
