Hippie days
How a handful of countercultural scientists changed the course of physics in the 1970s and helped open up the frontier of quantum information.
Long live the qubit!
The power of quantum computers depends on keeping them in a fragile quantum-mechanical state — which researchers have found a new way to extend.

The quantum singularity
A new experiment would use quantum effects to perform otherwise intractable calculations, but conducting it should be easier than building a quantum computer.
Can fluid dynamics offer insights into quantum mechanics?
Experiments in which fluid droplets mimic the odd behavior of subatomic particles recall an abandoned interpretation of quantum mechanics.
Quantum computing may actually be useful
A quantum algorithm that solves systems of linear equations could point in a promising new direction.
