How physicists proved that quantum weirdness is a feature, not a bug

Quantum information is essential and could soon impact our financial security due to advancements in quantum computing.

Philosophy

A 100-year-old theory might explain what's wrong with quantum mechanics

Pilot wave theory, developed by Louis de Broglie a century ago, potentially resolves quantum mechanics' paradoxes by describing particles guided by attendant waves rather than existing in superposition.

Getting formal about quantum mechanics' lack of causality

Superposition of temporal order is a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics, despite existing loopholes in current experiments.

NIST's Quantum Breakthrough: Single Photons Produced on a Chip

NIST has developed a chip that reliably emits a single photon on demand. This ability will improve the efficiency of QKD (quantum key distribution) as we prepare for the arrival of quantum computers. Quantum computers will upend current cryptology by using Shor's algorithm to rapidly negate the current public/private key secure encryption methods. This has largely been solved by NIST's post quantum cryptology (PQC) algorithms.
