What would it mean for two particles to become gravitationally entangled? Since the 1920s, we have known that the classical description of Nature given by [more…]
Einstein’s theory of general relativity, formulated in 1916, treats gravity as a deformation of spacetime as a result of different particles and fields. Together with [more…]
A molecular complex was built to contain three distinct qubits, offering an intriguing architecture for future quantum computers. In recent years, quantum computers have become [more…]
A new coating designed for sub-ambient radiative cooling could help combat global warming by curbing energy use. Global warming is one of the most serious [more…]
Physicists at the Gemini Observatory have found a new mass limit for massive stars, and found it to be lower than previously thought. Very massive [more…]
We know that the universe is expanding, and our understanding of nature based on general relativity and the Standard Model of elementary particles is consistent [more…]
Physicists have reported the observation of a tetraneutron, a subatomic particle consisting of just four neutrons. Almost all atomic nuclei contain neutrons, which are bound [more…]
Tweaking the rules of gravity via Modified Newtonian dynamics provides a possible alternative explanation for the behavior of galaxies The inexplicably large rotation velocities of [more…]
Stars are depicted using different colors, but are they accurate? A new scientific color palette aims to put misrepresentations to rest. Are white dwarfs truly [more…]
A set of quantum computers was put to the test by playing the notorious triangle game. Quantum computers are definitely one of the hottest topics [more…]
