Neutrons reveal the existence of local symmetry breaking in a Weyl semimetal
At higher temperatures (left), the Weyl semimetal lattice maintains its symmetry. At lower temperatures (right), local symmetry breaks down, as depicted by the atomic shifts and lattice distortions, which alters…
Study unveils limits on the extent to which quantum errors can be ‘undone’ in large systems
Credit: Quek et al. Quantum computers have the potential of outperforming conventional computers on some practically relevant information processing problems, possibly even in machine learning and optimization. Yet their large-scale…

X-ray imagery of vibrating diamond opens avenues for quantum sensing
Results of mechanical Rabi measurements. Credit: Physical Review Applied (2024). DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevApplied.22.024016 The APS’s high-resolution images enabled the team to measure the atoms’ movement near the diamond’s NV centers to…
After AI, quantum computing eyes its ‘Sputnik’ moment
Cambridge-based Riverlane produces a chip that detects and corrects the errors currently holding back quantum computing. Quantum computing promises society-changing breakthroughs in drug development and tackling climate change, and on…
Physicists develop new method to combine conventional internet with the quantum internet
In their experiment, the researchers can change the color of a laser pulse with a high-speed electrical signal so that it matches the color of the entangled photon. This effect…
