The Famous Three-Body Problem Has a Drunken Solution The well-known three-body issue is a physics puzzle that dates back to Newton’s time. It has never really been solved since it cannot be, as…
Tardigrade Might Be First Animal to Be Quantum Entangled – And Live For the first time, a living animal has reported being quantum entangled – and lived. It is a long way from “beam me up, Scotty,”…
Time Might Not Flow In Just One Direction in the Quantum World According to a new study, the passage of time at the quantum level does not have to be in one direction. Quantum systems have the…
Frontera Supercomputer Explore Light-induced Superconductivity The Frontera supercomputer was used by researchers to investigate light-induced superconductivity using a pulsed laser, which is thought to be a promising route to room-temperature…
Quantum Computing Scale-up is helped by a New Super-cooled Microwave Source Researchers have created a circuit that can generate the high-quality microwave signals needed to control quantum computers while operating at temperatures close to absolute zero.…
Ions are Brought to a Standstill by Quantum Algorithms Laser beams can do more than just heat up objects; they can also cool them down. For physicists who have dedicated their careers to precision…
Quantum Measurement is Constrained The quantum world and our everyday world are worlds apart. Physicists are now investigating how the act of measuring a quantum particle converts it into…
Watch This Training Video of a Helicopter Losing Power above a Mountain Range “A glider is an airplane whose engine fails. A helicopter with a broken engine is a brick.” In a tweet from 2015, Neil deGrasse Tyson,…
Stopping the Blinking of Quantum Dots Quantum dots have a wide range of potential applications, but their ability to blink off at random intervals limits their use. Chemists have developed a…
Solid – Crystals that Convert Light to more useful Wavelengths are used for Photon Upconversion Solid-solution organic crystals have been introduced into the search for better photon up-conversion materials, which convert currently wasted long-wavelength light into more useful shorter wavelength…
