Quarks are truly funny particles. They are the fundamental building blocks of the protons and neutrons, but we have never seen them directly. It is also impossible to have a single quark: they do not ...

Metal ions bridging the grooves of two DNA helices explain how they lock together, the first direct look at the DNA zipper ...

Scientists recreated a particle-forming process linked to the extreme physics of the early universe using a 13-ion quantum simulator. The breakthrough suggests quantum computers could eventually help ...

Researchers used 13 trapped ions to simulate string breaking, showing how quantum hardware could help scientists explore ...

A research team led by faculty at the Duke Quantum Center (DQC) has observed string-breaking dynamics related to ...

The process is known as proton-coupled electron transfer, or PCET. It involves the coordinated movement of positively charged ...

Infleqtion says it ran a circuit using 30 logical qubits on 80 atoms. We look at what the roughly 25% figure actually ...

While lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) remain the most widely used rechargeable batteries worldwide, energy engineers have been testing various alternatives with different underlying chemistries. These ...

For executives and planners at the forefront of business, the constraints of 'time' and 'cost' in new product development are ...

CosmoCube will use the far side of the Moon as a shield from Earth’s radio noise to search for a faint signal from the ...

T cells can precisely target cancer, but engineered receptors may interfere with natural ones and lose effectiveness; ...

The researchers also found that DNA molecules do not all pair with the same strength. Some DNA sequences form much stronger ...
