The simulation of quantum systems and the development of systems that can perform computations leveraging quantum mechanical effects rely on the ability to arrange atoms in specific patterns with high levels of precision. To arrange […]
Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly rare event that could deepen our understanding of how particles acquire mass. They also sharpened their ability to […]
Scientists using Google’s quantum processor have taken a major step toward unraveling the deepest mysteries of the universe. By simulating fundamental interactions described by gauge theories, the team showed how particles and the invisible “strings” […]
In 1974, five years before he wrote his Pulitzer Prize–winning book Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid, Douglas Hofstadter was a graduate student in physics at the University of Oregon. When his doctoral adviser […]
Scientists have discovered that electron spin loss, long considered waste, can instead drive magnetization switching in spintronic devices, boosting efficiency by up to three times. The scalable, semiconductor-friendly method could accelerate the development of ultra-low-power […]
Researchers at Te Whai Ao — Dodd-Walls Centre for photonic and quantum technologies and the University of Otago, in collaboration with the Vienna University of Technology, have published a new study in Nature Physics. The […]
Morgan Stanley has disclosed a 7.10% ownership stake in IonQ, Inc., as reported in a Schedule 13G form filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on August 6, 2025. The filing indicates that […]
Ripple bugs’ fan-like legs inspired engineers to build the Rhagobot, a tiny robot with self-morphing fans. By mimicking these insects’ passive, ultra-fast movements, the robot gains speed, control, and endurance without extra energy—potentially transforming aquatic […]
Quantum computers hold the potential of solving some optimization and data processing problems that cannot be tackled by classical computers. Many of the most promising quantum computing platforms developed so far are based on superconducting […]
Quantum scientists at the Quantum Control Laboratory at the University of Sydney Nano Institute have demonstrated a new type of quantum logic gate on a single atom. The research, published in Nature Physics, demonstrates a […]
