Neutron stars possess a superfluid core where neutrons flow without resistance. Scientists traditionally relied on complex models involving "Cooper pairs" to understand this phenomenon.
The field of quantum machine learning, which aims to achieve quantum advantage to outperform classical machine learning, has advanced recently, thanks to a study published in Intelligent Computing by researchers from the University of Melbourne and CSIRO.
An innovative planar spoof plasmonic neural network (SPNN) platform capable of directly detecting and processing terahertz (THz) electromagnetic signals has been unveiled by researchers at City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) and Southeast University in Nanjing.
Scotland is to host a quantum light source that is travelling across 12 countries in Europe.
Electrons typically travel at high speeds, zipping through matter unbound. In the 1930s, physicist Eugene Wigner predicted that electrons could be coaxed into stillness at low densities and cold temperatures, forming an electron ice that would later be called the Wigner crystal.
Study finds that demagnetized Martian basins may indicate a reversing dynamo, not early cessation, impacting our understanding of Mars's magnetic evolution.

A team of astronomers from the U.S. National Science Foundation NOIRLab astronomers has discovered a supermassive black hole at the center of a galaxy that formed just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang. This black hole is consuming matter at an astonishing rate—over 40 times the theoretical limit—using data from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and the Chandra X-ray Observatory. These findings were published in Nature Astronomy.
Argonne is among a group of institutions chosen by the Simons Foundation and the US National Science Foundationto receive funding for the creation of the NSF-Simons AI Institute for the Sky (SkAI), an institute focused on AI and astronomy.
