Why Facebook & Goldman Sachs Keep Poaching Each Other’s Engineers
Some say that Silicon Valley is the new Wall Street, but could there be deeper reasons why tech companies like Facebook compete with banks like Goldman Sachs for engineers? It used to be banks that attracted the brightest. дальше »

This thought experiment explains how quantum computers can time travel
You know how sometimes you find yourself facing off against an enemy spaceship in a Wild West-inspired laser duel where whoever fires first wins? What if I told you that a group of researchers (a murder of physicists?) came up with a way for you to manipulate the very fabric of time and space so that, no matter who fires first, you both die? That’s probably not the best pitch you’ve heard for developing quantum computers. дальше »

Study: Either the Hubble Constant is wrong or the universe is ripping itself apart
The science community has a crisis on its hands. Some anarchist physicists recently started kicking the tires on the Standard Model and they figured out the universe is expanding faster than it should be. дальше »

Forget qubits: Quantum physicists successfully teleported ‘qutrits’ in breakthrough experiments
Two independent research teams recently published studies indicating they’ve successfully teleported a qutrit — possibly within days of each other. Now, both await the scientific process of peer review to see which will ultimately get credit for being the first humans to do so. дальше »

Scientists teleported quantum data into the flawed heart of a diamond
A team of scientists from Yokohama National University recently became the first researchers to teleport a photon into the vacuous space inside of a flaw within a diamond. In other words: physicists just invented quantum bling. дальше »

Scientists discover infinite decay and rebirth in quantum particles
A team of scientists recently determined certain quantum particles can regenerate after they’ve decayed. This has grand implications for the future of humanity, quantum computing, and intergalactic graffiti. дальше »

See you earlier: Physicists sent a (simulated) particle back in time
An international team of physicists looking for loopholes in the laws of physics recently simulated a brute-force method for reversing the age of a particle by 1/1,000,000th of a second. In other words: time travel is possible (in a simulation). дальше »

Physicists developed an experimental quantum device to predict the future
A team of scientists from Griffith University in Australia and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore have developed a quantum-powered machine that accurately simulates future outcomes. дальше »

How teleporting light and levitating diamonds offer proof of quantum theory
Physicists and researchers working in several laboratories are close to proving a theory that lays the groundwork for an advanced understanding of … well, everything. The theory in question is quantum mechanics, a form of physics that relies on the movements of subatomic particles to explain the natural universe. дальше »

Physicists might have created quantum entanglement in bacteria
A team of scientists may have observed a quantum physics phenomena called entanglement occur within a living organism. Then again, maybe they didn’t. That’s quantum physics for you. Researchers from Oxford published a study earlier this month detailing their examination of an experiment conducted in 2016 by physicist David Cole and other researchers at the University of Sheffield. дальше »

This astrophysicist explains the surprisingly complex concept of ‘nothing’
Philosophers have debated the nature of “nothing” for thousands of years, but what has modern science got to say about it? In an interview with The Conversation, Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal and Emeritus Professor of Cosmology and Astrophysics at the University of Cambridge, explains that when physicists talk about nothing, they mean empty space (vacuum). дальше »

Quantum computers really suck at being perpetual motion machines
An international team of physicists recently published research indicating quantum computers aren’t the way to go for those hoping to break the second law of thermodynamics, the one that says there’s no free lunch in the universe. дальше »
