Time has always seemed like the one thing physics could count on. Matter changes, stars die, particles flicker in and out, but time keeps moving. That assumption sits so deep in modern science that it ...

From mobile phones and banking systems to aircraft, ships and emergency services, much of modern life relies on precise ...

Future quantum computing will require correlations between distant modules—a feature known as distributed entanglement.

Key points GPS timing is used to keep many systems running - including communication, power grids, finance, transport and ...

Imagine shining a flashlight across a dark room. You can predict exactly what the light will do: travel in a straight line ...

Quantum technologies, which leverage the principles of quantum mechanics, have been found to outperform their classical ...

Ronald Hanson is at QuTech and the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience, Delft University of Technology, Delft 2628 CJ, the Netherlands. The authors show that for a 10-km fibre link, entanglement between ...
