A multinational team of researchers, co-led by a City University of Hong Kong (CityU) physicist, has found that a novel metallic crystal displays unusual electronic behavior on its surface, thanks to the crystal’s unique atomic […]
In the near future, quantum computers could contribute significantly towards the development of clean technologies. Could is the operative word – you see, it’s not yet certain whether a sufficiently robust computer of this type […]
Perched on a leaf in the rainforest, the tiny golden mantella frog harbors a secret. It shares that secret with the fork-tongued frog, the reed frog and myriad other frogs in the hills and forests […]
Insider Brief Drug design, which is expensive and time-consuming, is a potential use case for quantum computers. A team of Penn State researchers received a $1.2 million NSF grant to study the use of quantum […]
Insider Brief: The city of Hamburg will try to build upon current expertise and establish a dedicated Hamburg Quantum Computing School. The authorities will provide around 34.1 million euros between 2023 and 2028. The Hamburg […]
Whether it is automatic speech recognition, self-driving cars or medical research: our need for computing power is constantly on the rise. Yet, the possibilities for increasing the performance of microchips will soon have reached their […]
For the first time, physicists have observed novel quantum effects in a topological insulator at room temperature. This breakthrough, published as the cover article of the October issue of Nature Materials, came when Princeton scientists […]
Quantum computers have attracted considerable interest of late for their potential to crack problems in a few hours where they might take the age of the universe (i.e., tens of billions of years) on the […]
On Sunday, October 9, Judith Racusin was 35,000 feet in the air, en route to a high-energy astrophysics conference, when the biggest cosmic explosion in history took place. “I landed, looked at my phone, and […]
