At the Large Hadron Collider, scientists from the University of Kansas achieved a fleeting form of modern-day alchemy — turning lead into gold for just a fraction of a second. Using ultra-peripheral collisions, where ions […]
Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) has announced that its microcontrollers (MCUs) in the new PSOC™ Control C3 Performance Line family are compliant with Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) requirements for firmware protection outlined in […]
Physicists have heated gold to over 19,000 Kelvin, more than 14 times its melting point, without melting it, smashing the long-standing “entropy catastrophe” limit. Using an ultra-fast laser pulse at SLAC’s Linac Coherent Light Source, […]
Scientists have found that microscopic gold clusters can act like the world’s most accurate quantum systems, while being far easier to scale up. With tunable spin properties and mass production potential, they could transform quantum […]
ETH Zurich researchers levitated a nano glass sphere cluster with record-setting quantum purity at room temperature, avoiding costly cooling. Using optical tweezers, they isolated quantum zero-point motion, paving the way for future quantum sensors in […]
The Africa Quantum Consortium (AQC), a pan-African initiative, has officially launched as a platform for coordinating quantum science, education, innovation, and policy across the continent. Formally registered in South Africa, the organization aims to provide […]
Physicists are exploring thorium-229’s unique properties to create a nuclear clock so precise it could detect the faintest hints of dark matter. Recent measurement advances may allow scientists to spot tiny shifts in the element’s […]
A superconducting quantum computer, fully designed and built with domestic Japanese components and software, went live on July 28 at The University of Osaka’s Center for Quantum Information and Quantum Biology (QIQB). This achievement, a […]
How can quantum technologies be developed responsibly? In the journal Science, researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM), the University of Cambridge, Harvard University and Stanford University argue that international standards should be established […]
“Happy 100th birthday, quantum mechanics!” a physicist bellowed into a microphone one evening in June, and the cavernous banquet hall of Hamburg’s Hotel Atlantic erupted into cheers and applause. Some 300 quantum physicists had traveled […]
