New Model Proposed by SDU Researchers for What Dark Matter Might Be

Dark matter is all around us. Though no one has ever seen it, and no one knows what it really is, indisputable physical calculations state that approximately 27% of the universe is dark matter. Only five % is the matter of which all known materials consist; from the smallest ant to the largest galaxy.

New Technique to Detect Presence or Absence of Individual Electrons with Unprecedented Accuracy

Scientists from the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) have demonstrated the ability to detect the presence or absence of individual electrons with unprecedented accuracy.

Prototype Lab Aims to Measure Big Bang Neutrinos with Unprecedented Precision

Big Bang neutrinos are believed to be everywhere in the universe but have never been seen. As the oldest known witnesses or relics of the early universe, these subatomic particles could shed new light on the birth of the cosmos if scientists could pin them down. That's a tall order since these ghostly particles can speed through planets as if they were empty space.

New Controversial Discovery Could Affect Calculations Regarding Future of Quantum Computers

Bazinga! University of Cincinnati theoretical physicists are about to report on a controversial discovery that they say contradicts the work of researchers over the decades.

Delayed-Choice Experiments Bring Further Insights into Quantum Physics

Since the 17th century, science was intrigued by the nature of light. Isaac Newton was certain that it consists of a stream of particles. His contemporary Christiaan Huygens, however, argued that light is a wave. Modern quantum physics says that both were right.

Researchers Demonstrate Generation of Multiphoton Entangled Qubit States on Optical Chip

The optical chip developed at INRS by Prof. Roberto Morandotti’s team overcomes a number of obstacles in the development of quantum computers, which are expected to revolutionize information processing. The international research team has demonstrated that on-chip quantum frequency combs can be used to simultaneously generate multiphoton entangled quantum bit (qubit) states.

Niels Bohr Institute Researchers Demonstrate Key Property of Majorana Zero Modes

Quantum technology has the potential to revolutionize computation, cryptography, and simulation of quantum systems. However, quantum physics places a new demand on information processing hardware: quantum states are fragile, and so must be controlled without being measured.

HTCondor Software Plays Key Role in LIGO’s Detection of Gravitational Waves

A few years ago, a team of international scientists parlayed many years of research into the discovery of the Higgs boson, a subatomic particle, thought to be a building block of our universe. The analysis of data collected from several particle collisions was aided by HTCondor, a software program.
