Orthodox quantum mechanics is empirically flawless, but founded on an awkward interface between quantum systems and classical ...

Alternative deterministic interpretation generally predicts the same results as standard theories – but maybe not this time ...

Quantum mechanics looks at how things work at the atomic and subatomic levels, where particles behave in ways that seem ...

One hundred years ago, Werner Heisenberg retreated to the island of Helgoland, where he built the foundations of the first full formulation of quantum mechanics. Finding its matrices repugnant, Erwin ...

Welcome to the digital edition of the July/August 2025 issue of CERN Courier.

The universe follows predictable rules, behaving classically according to Einstein’s theory of general relativity. So, what ...

Since its development 100 years ago, quantum mechanics has revolutionized our understanding of nature, revealing a bizarre ...

In physics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment in which a cat is trapped in a box with a particle that has a 50-50 chance of decaying. If the particle decays, the cat dies; otherwise, the cat ...
