Insider Brief Defense Scoop is reporting that the Secretary of Defense is requesting $75 million to accelerate quantum. The initiative aims to speed up the commercialization and operationalization of quantum devices for Pentagon purposes. Pentagon […]
This week, the Texas Legislature will take up SB 18, a bill to ban the granting of tenure at all public universities in Texas, including UT Austin and Texas A&M. (Those of us who already […]
Perturbing electron spins in a magnet usually results in excitations called “spin waves” that ripple through the magnet like waves on a pond that’s been struck by a pebble. In a new study, Rice University […]
The nano-scale electronic parts in devices like smartphones are solid, static objects that once designed and built cannot transform into anything else. But physicists have reported the discovery of nano-scale devices that can transform into […]
An international team of researchers from Leibniz University Hannover (Germany), the University of Twente (Netherlands), and the start-up company QuiX Quantum has presented an entangled quantum light source fully integrated for the first time on […]
Kenna Hughes-Castleberry and Brian Lenahan, are interviewed by Yuval Boger about their new book – “On the shoulders of giants” – which tells the stories of ten lesser-known quantum greats. Kenna, Brian and Yuval spoke […]
Tracie Seimon discovered her passion for the natural world early. As a child growing up in Colorado, she enjoyed “harvesting insects” from her family backyard and keeping a hobby ant farm. When she saw trees […]
Physicists and material scientists have been trying to metallize hydrogen for many decades, but they have not yet succeeded. In 1968, British physicist Neil Ashcroft predicted that atomic metallic hydrogen would be a high-temperature semiconductor. […]
Quantum 7, 982 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-04-17-982 Exceptional point (EP) is a spectral singularity in non-Hermitian systems. The passing over the EP leads to a phase transition, which endows the system with unconventional features that find a […]
