Using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, University of Amsterdam chemists have considerably enhanced the experimental determination of the “handedness” or chirality of molecules.
Researchers from Linköping University have demonstrated the way a quantum computer really works and have been able to simulate quantum computer properties in a classical computer.
Recent advances in Quantum X-ray technology have enabled a team of researchers to demonstrate quantum enhancement in an existing x-ray machine.

In the data from the Advanced LIGO detectors, the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration have identified a further gravitational wave event.
The first-ever nickel oxide material has been developed by researchers from the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University. This material exhibits evident signs of superconductivity—the potential to transmit electrical current with zero loss.
A new quasiparticle’s discovery is equivalent to the discovery of a new molecule. However, molecules include various elements, whereas quasiparticles are formed of basic particles and interactions.
Astronomers in California have recently detected a giant exoplanet orbiting its parent star in a somewhat peculiar fashion.

Archer Exploration Limited is pleased to announce that the Company has assembled the first qubit component of a prototype room-temperature operation quantum computing qubit processor (“chip”), as part of its pioneering quantum technology project 12CQ (pronounced “one two cee cue”).
Researchers at QuTech have made a breakthrough in quantum internet security.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory has developed an exclusive superconducting cavity, further advancing the world’s biggest neutrino experiment.
Researchers have performed an experiment for testing a famous theory related to dark energy and have not found any proof of new forces, thereby placing strong restrictions on associated theories.
Scientists from Purdue University have produced a quantum spin wave for light that could act as an information carrier for next-generation nanotechnologies but with a special twist—they flow in only one direction.
In condensed matter physics, one of the greatest puzzles is to find the precise link between superconductivity and charge order in cuprate superconductors. In the case of superconductors, electrons move freely through the material—there is no resistance upon being cooled below its critical temperature.
Superconductors are expected to redefine the energy industry in the near future, but for this to be happen, these materials should have the ability to transport electricity under room temperature without any kind of resistance.
A breakthrough in figuring out how the quasi-particles called magnetic monopoles perform could pave the way towards the development of new technologies that can substitute electric charges.
