Constructing a small-scale circuit to further examine and explore the possibility. Credit: Tokyo University of Science The basic units of a quantum computer can be…
Scientists examining the light from one of the furthermost quasars in the universe were astonished to find fluctuations in the electromagnetic force. Not only does…
Atoms and molecules behave very differently at extreme temperatures and pressures. Although such extreme matter doesn’t exist naturally on the earth, it exists in abundance…
Scientists who study topological materials face a challenge — how to establish and maintain control of these unique quantum behaviors in a way that makes…
Analog-to-digital convertors built to work at cryogenic temperatures, such as the prototype pictured here, will operate inside of liquid-argon chambers in the Deep Underground Neutrino…
