The Dynamical Casimir Effect (DCE) encompasses a striking quantum phenomenon whereby rapid, nonadiabatic modifications of boundary conditions produce pairs of real photons from the quantum vacuum – a ...

Quantum annealer has simulated the fundamental process of false vacuum decay, opening the window to the understanding of interactions between true vacuum bubbles. Credit: Professor Zlatko Papic / ...

A team of physicists claims to have pulled energy out of a vacuum, Quanta reports — a trick that required them to teleport it from a different location using quantum tech. The work builds on previous ...

Protons, the positively charged particles that help build every atom in our bodies, are starting to look less like classical billiard balls and more like quantum actors. A growing body of research now ...
