This seems like a normal, if blurry photograph of an object — a regular old cat stencil. The catch is, however,…
Storing data in a state of quantum entanglement could hold enormous promise for securing our online information, but…
Orphan Black writer Tony Elliott spins a different sort of scifi thriller with the short film Entangled. A woman…
Scientists have teleported quantum information between two bits of diamond located 10 feet apart. It's a prime example of "spooky action at a distance" — and an achievement that could lead to quantum networks exponentially more powerful and secure than today's supercomputers.
Einstein said that clocks that are moving through space at dramatically divergent speeds will measure time…

New research on wormholes suggests that these theoretical shortcuts that connect distant points in the universe might be linked with the spooky phenomenon of quantum entanglement. As Charles Q. Choi writes in LiveScience, this would allow particles to be connected regardless of how far apart they are — a finding that…
