New entanglement breakthrough links cores of atoms, brings quantum computers closer
Andrea Morello, UNSW Sydney Quantum entanglement — once dismissed by Albert Einstein as “spooky action at a distance”…
Physicist uses quantum tool to unlock AI ‘black box’
A University of Utah physicist has applied methods from quantum field theory to solve a machine learning model, uncovering new scaling laws that help predict AI performance.
Teenagers are choosing to study Stem subjects – it’s a sign of the times
SpeedKingz/Shutterstock Mike Watts, Brunel University of London A-level results in 2025 show the increasing popularity of Stem (science,…

How Lava Lamps Protect the Internet
Our most sensitive digital information is protected by harnessing the chaotic behavior of systems like lava lamps, thereby solving the critical problem that computers, by their very nature, cannot be truly random.
The King and Queen of Cursed Units
These monstrosities are real units used by real people.
Scientists see magnons’ dance at the nanoscale for 1st time
In a milestone for magnonics and microscopy, researchers have finally captured the first-ever direct images of bulk magnons at the nanoscale, opening exciting new opportunities for spin-based electronics.
The Most Cursed Units in Science
An exploration into the bizarre side of science, where fuel efficiency is a unit of area, the age of the universe is a stunning coincidence, and some physical constants are measured in "per square root kilometer."
Going to Zero Gravity to Prove Gravity Is a Lie
Einstein's revolutionary insight was that gravity isn't a force pulling objects together, but rather the result of mass and energy warping the very fabric of spacetime.
