Physicists propose a quantum–optomechanical solution to dark-matter detection
Dr Maxim Goryachev, University of Western Australia An interdisciplinary collaboration between condensed-matter, quantum-optics and particle physicists has the potential to crack the search for low-mass dark matter. The proposed quantum…
HKIAS Annual General Meeting 2024: Fostering Globa
The Hong Kong Institute for Advanced Study (HKIAS) hosted its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 19 November 2024, bringing together Senior Fellows from across the globe to discuss strategic advancements…
Slow atomic movements shed new light on unconventional superconductivity
An SLAC research team discovered how an exceedingly slow process known as atomic relaxation changes in the presence of two of the quantum states that intertwine in cuprate superconductors. The…
How SLAC Researchers Are Pushing AI to the Edge
This is the first of a two-part series exploring a sampling of ways artificial intelligence helps researchers from around the world perform cutting-edge science with the lab’s state-of-the-art facilities and…
A path towards applying topology in quantum computing
Simulation results for the “shortcut to adiabaticity” protocol. The Wigner function evolution for the Kerr nonlinear oscillator state during the protocol is shown for the two different initial states, one…
