Chicago has quickly emerged as a hub for quantum computing, with the state of Illinois and technology companies pouring ...

Researchers at Hiroshima University have developed a realistic, highly sensitive method to detect the Unruh effect—a long-predicted phenomenon at the crossroads of relativity and quantum theory. Their ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Hard problems are usually not a welcome sight. But cryptographers love them. That’s because certain hard math problems underpin the ...

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...

Scientists at the University of Tokyo have unveiled “gold quantum needles,” a newly discovered nanocluster structure formed under unusual synthesis conditions. Unlike typical spherical clusters, these ...

"If the model holds true, it could mark a new chapter in the way we think about the birth of the universe." A radical new theory regarding the origin of the universe suggests that gravitational waves, ...

Cybersecurity specialist Ten Eleven Ventures led a $320 million minority investment in IQM Quantum Computers, which values the European quantum computing company above $1 billion. Ten Eleven Ventures’ ...

Computers with components made of diamond are being installed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee in a bid to marry quantum information technologies with classical computers, the lab ...

Quantum mechanics is our most successful physical theory. Created to account for atomic phenomena, it has a vast range of applications extending well beyond the atomic realm, from predicting the ...

A new quantum computing installation at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee leverages diamond-based hardware to merge quantum information technologies with classical computing systems to spark ...

Libby Heaney’s Growler (2024) is a glass sculpture that looks anything but. Despite its crystalline surface, it appears as if viscous, gummy and glutinous as it sags and drips down the side of its ...
