The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...

Calculations show that injecting randomness into a quantum neural network could help it determine properties of quantum ...

A new study enhances hydrogen molecule predictions, achieving unprecedented precision in testing fundamental physics and ...

Confused by terms like focal ratio, pixel scale, or signal-to-noise ratio? This quick primer breaks down core astroimaging theory in plain language — perfect for anyone just starting out in ...

Quantum computing promises a new generation of computers capable of solving problems hundreds of millions of times more quickly than today’s fastest supercomputers. This is done by harnessing spooky ...

The ball rolls across the floor because it was kicked, just as Earth orbits the sun because it is tugged by gravity. The connection between cause and effect is fundamental to how we understand the ...

In the most recent run-up from early 2009 through the end of 2021, this passively allocated 60/40 portfolio delivered about 9.4% real, about twice the long-run average. Today, following the fastest ...

I have long been fascinated by the strong attraction many people feel toward quantum field theory as a way to explain extraordinary experiences. As a psychiatrist interested in coincidences and the ...

For over a century, physics has been divided between the elegance of Einstein’s relativity and the strangeness of quantum mechanics. A new framework, the quantum memory matrix, suggests that spacetime ...

IBM’s strategy to make quantum computing accessible through the cloud is helping it monetize its offerings. IonQ’s trapped-ion systems are moving from the lab to real-world use cases. Together, these ...

HSBC used IBM's quantum computers to improve a process involved in algorithm bond trading. The collaboration demonstrated that pairing quantum computers with classical techniques can provide ...
