In the world of quantum physics, the rules that govern reality behave in ways that challenge what we think we know. Particles can be in two places at once. Actions on one particle can instantly affect ...
Time travel has long lived in the realm of science fiction, but a prominent futurist now argues that humans could effectively ...
Shattered glass does not leap back into your hand. Smoke from a match does not gather itself and crawl back inside. In everyday life, time feels like a one-way street, and you only get one chance to ...
Input/output is the term for time before and after a particular physical moment or scenario, and in certain quantum scenarios, those ‘befores’ and ‘afters’ can be interchangeable. Researchers have ...
The quantum world operates by different rules than the classical one we buzz around in, allowing the fantastical to the bizarrely normal. Physicists have described using quantum entanglement to ...
Some quantum systems may have two arrows of time, one running forwards as usual and another moving backwards. This means that, at some extremely small scales, time may have the option of moving in ...
