Imagine the benefits if the entire internet got a game-changing upgrade to speed and security. This is the promise of the quantum internet—an advanced system that uses single photons to operate. Researchers at Tohoku University ...
When you shine a flashlight into a glass of water, the beam bends. That simple observation, familiar since ancient times, hides one of the oldest puzzles in physics: what really happens to the momentum of light when it enters ...
A research team has successfully developed a self-locked Raman-electro-optic (REO) microcomb on a single lithium niobate chip. By synergistically harnessing the electro-optic (EO), Kerr, and Raman effects within one microresonator, ...
In a study published in Reports on Progress in Â鶹ÒùÔºics, researchers have achieved device-independent characterization of genuinely entangled subspaces (GESs) in both optical and superconducting quantum systems, completing ...
Is life possible—or has it ever been possible—on other planets? The (Origin of) Life Marker Chip (LMCOOL) seeks the answer. This innovative chip is being developed by a Dutch consortium led by TU Delft. UT researcher ...
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers from the University of Florida and elsewhere have performed infrared observations of a star-forming cloud known as Sagittarius B2. Results of the observational campaign, ...
Quantum technologies are systems that can compute data, sense their surrounding environment or perform other functions leveraging quantum mechanical effects. Connecting these technologies over long distances has so far proved ...
Integration into a quantum money protocol shows that memories can now handle very demanding applications for quantum networking.
Dark matter remains one of the biggest mysteries in fundamental physics. Many theoretical proposals (axions, WIMPs) and 40 years of extensive experimental searches have failed to provide any explanation of the nature of dark ...
This week, researchers reported evidence of a cosmic impact at classic Clovis archaeological sites. Biologists in Texas discovered a rare hybrid bird, the offspring of a blue jay and a green jay. And a study suggests that ...
