His original assumption of singularity (thus a Big Bang) followed from general relativity but those assumptions did not take into account quantum mechanics. Hawking again in refutation of his earlier "big bang" theory when the data ...

Bank Woes: Quantum Mechanics vs. Nanotech. Seriously, the banks are complaining because of the rules being imposed on them for credit card statements. The only question is: should I play my Quantum State violin or my nanotechnology ...

1957: Hugh Everett's Many Worlds Interpretation of quantum mechanics. This one's pretty technical, too, but I can save you the effort of slogging through the equations by explaining it thusly: Everett proposed that the weirdness in ...

After reading the ensuing comments today, I have to say I come squarely down on the side of Vivek Wadhwa of UC-Berkeley . A lot of money has gone into basic research in recent years and in the last half century as well with a lot of results—they just don’t ever make it into commercial markets.

The study of decoherence is intertwined with the field of quantum information science in at least three ways. Key challenges of the next years in the study of decoherence with methods, tools and intuition from quantum information ...

Researchers have used nanomaterials to develop a microchip sensitive enough to quickly determine the type and severity of a patient's cancer so that the disease can be detected earlier for more effective treatment.

New data on signaling proteins, called G proteins, may prove important in fighting diseases such as cardiovascular, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. For many decades scientists have wondered how signaling proteins transport and organize in specific areas of the cell. Researchers have just provided new, still unrecognized, clues to solve this mystery.
