An international physics team has proposed a new concept that may allow selected cosmic extreme processes to be studied in the laboratory in the future. A special setup of two high-intensity laser beams could create […]
You’re sitting at the end of a long conference table, interviewing for your dream job. You’ve made it this far, but there’s just one more question you have to answer. “Is it possible for a […]
Behold the neutron, the middle child of subatomic particles. At times overshadowed by its electrically charged siblings the proton and the electron, neutrons quietly play important roles in national security. They start nuclear reactions for […]
Quantum 5, 508 (2021). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2021-07-22-508 In general relativity, the description of spacetime relies on idealised rods and clocks, which identify a reference frame. In any concrete scenario, reference frames are associated to physical systems, which […]
PRESS RELEASE: Xanadu, a full-stack quantum computing company developing quantum hardware and software solutions, has been awarded a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) grant. The grant will enable Xanadu to develop a unique general-purpose “circuit-cutting” […]
A team of scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory propose that modulated quantum metasurfaces can control all properties of photonic qubits, a breakthrough that could impact the fields of quantum information, communications, sensing and imaging, […]
Aliro Quantum is a quantum networking platform company that spun out of NarangLab at Harvard University that develops simulation and control tools for quantum networks. A key focus is to deliver something they call Quantum Entanglement as […]
Alright everyone: Victor Galitski has an impassioned rant against out-of-control quantum computing hype, which I enjoyed and enthusiastically recommend, although I wished Galitski had engaged a bit more with the strongest arguments for optimism (e.g., […]
Physicists have observed signs of a rare type of superconductivity in a material called ‘magic-angle’ twisted trilayer graphene. They report that the material exhibits superconductivity at surprisingly high magnetic fields of up to 10 Tesla, […]
Integral Role Spain, though not one of Europe’s leading players in quantum computing (QC) and quantum information science (QIS) at the moment, does show signs of having the right attitude with several startups and organizations […]
