Skoltech Scientist Bridges the Gap Between Quantum Simulators and Quantum Computers

A researcher from Skoltech has filled in the gaps connecting quantum simulators with more traditional quantum computers, discovering a new computationally universal model of quantum computation, the variational model. The paper was published as a Letter in the journal Physical Review A. The work made the Editors’ Suggestion list.

New Quantum Sensor Grants Access to Measurement, Manipulation of Two-Level Defects in Qubits

A Russian-German research team has created a quantum sensor that grants access to measurement and manipulation of individual two-level defects in qubits. The study by NUST MISIS, Russian Quantum Center and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, published in npj Quantum Information, may pave the way for quantum computing.

Researchers Map the Location of Missing Baryons in the Galactic Halos

Researchers have channeled the universe's earliest light - a relic of the universe's formation known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB) - to solve a missing-matter mystery and learn new things about galaxy formation.

Observations of the Early Universe Point to the Existence of Unsuspected Dwarf Galaxies

Although the filaments of gas in which galaxies are born have long been predicted by cosmological models, we have so far had no real images of such objects. Now for the first time, several filaments of the 'cosmic web' have been directly observed using the MUSE (1) instrument installed on ESO's Very Large Telescope in Chile.

Using Synchrotron Radiation to Track Ultrafast Intra-Atom Motion

Scientists in Japan have observed, and interfered with, the ultrafast motion of electron movement inside of a Xenon atom using the coherent pairs of short light waves in synchrotron radiation.

Study Reveals a Spectacular Auroral Phenomenon that Occurs on Jupiter

The storms, which consist of brightenings and broadenings of the dawn flank of an oval of auroral activity that encircles Jupiter's poles, evolve in a pattern surprisingly reminiscent of familiar surges in the aurora that undulate across Earth's polar skies, called auroral substorms, according to the authors.
