Liquid water in -70 Celsius: Scientists break down water's weirdness
Does our brain use quantum computation?
One of the authors of the study said that quantum brain processes could explain why humans can outperform supercomputers.
Eduard Shyfrin speaks at Jewish studies conference in Jerusalem
Shyfrin spoke via Zoom on “Kabbalah of Information: Absence of Information is Information". He explained how Kabbalistic ideas can be explained using the support of information theory and physics.
New phase of matter could protect quantum computers against errors
The researchers still need to find a way to integrate the phase with the computational side of quantum computing.
Scientists find the most massive neutron star close to the black hole limit - study
PSR J0952–0607 is a neutron star 2.3 times as massive as the Sun but around just 20 kilometers wide. It is the closest pulsar known to the limit to forming a black hole.
Israel at CERN: Big Science and the ‘God Particle’
Israeli researchers from Technion, Tel Aviv University and the Weizmann Institute play important roles in CERN research. And this has been the case for over 30 years.
Reaffirmed anomaly could lead to innovations in standard model physics
Despite the reaffirmation, many other neutrino experiments have mysteriously failed to replicate the anomalous results.
New time crystal experiment may open new horizons in quantum computing
A time crystal is a phase of matter which repeats in time, similar to how a regular crystal's structure repeats in space.
NASA: Universe expansion is 'weird,' scientists unsure why - study
Why is the universe expanding so quickly? Scientists don't know, and there's a chance that it might be that there are physics at work that we have yet to understand.
World's most powerful heavy-ion accelerator to open in Michigan
A community of 1,600 scientists from around the world will use the accelerator to study how the universe formed.
CERN's Large Hadron Collider returns to service after 3-year hiatus
Four years of physics-data taking are set to begin this summer at the LHC, marking the third run of the collider.
