Using a Gas Jet to Bring Cosmic X-Ray Bursts into the Laboratory
The Science Neutron stars – extremely dense and exotic astronomical objects made almost entirely of neutrons – do not burn nuclear fuel to produce light. Instead, these strange objects can exist in binary…
Quantum Annealing for Function Optimization
Newswise — Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the unique properties of quantum computing to tackle complex combinatorial optimization problems (a class of mathematical problems dealing with…
Researchers advance effort to turn diamonds into a quantum simulator
Outside fields drive quantum particles within a diamond to create a long-lived quantum system. Credit: Zu lab Diamonds are often prized for their flawless shine, but Chong Zu, an assistant…
