The quantum community has known for years that typical isolated quantum many-body systems thermalize internally. Symmetries constrain this thermalization,...

Researchers tested a quantum majority-rule voting system on IBM quantum hardware and found that election outcomes can remain stable.

Freshman year of college, I took a writing seminar from German-literature professor Ellis Shookman. Professor Shookman loved Mozart’s music, he told us early in the term. He listened to Mozart on t…

I recently chatted with Nicole about her foray into quantum thermodynamics and quantum information. We discussed the future of the fields, her recent study results and their implications associated…

By day, I work as an experimentalist on laser-cooling molecules1, but I’ve never fully surrendered my theoretical-physics license. I started as an undergraduate in Lincoln Carr’s group …

The authors examine three definitions of internal energy, work, and heat that have been used for quantum systems coupled strongly to the environment. Their study focuses on quenches, processes in whic...

A scientist in Florence can’t avoid bumping into colleagues.  When visiting the Renaissance’s birthplace last summer, I ran into a fellow physicist even on a Saturday morning. I was wandering …
