The Mystery of High-Energy Cosmic Rays
Hold out your hand for 10 seconds. A dozen electrons and muons just zipped unfelt through your palm. The ghostly particles are what scientists call “secondary cosmic… Read more “The Mystery of High-Energy Cosmic Rays”
Quantum communicating with the Extraterrestrial Intelligence
Humanity is facing now the dawn of a new technological era involving quantum mechanics in almost all aspects of social life, from computation to communication. It might… Read more “Quantum communicating with the Extraterrestrial Intelligence”
Quantum Computing and Spacetime Curvature
General Relativity and quantum theory, the two pillars of modern physics, although notoriously difficult to reconcile, may beautifully work together, as a new paper suggests. Moreover, the… Read more “Quantum Computing and Spacetime Curvature”
Quantum Truths About Our Universe
From the moment that it was discovered that the macroscopic, classical rules that governed electricity, magnetism and light didn’t necessarily apply to the smallest, subatomic scales, a… Read more “Quantum Truths About Our Universe”
Quantum Teleportation Can Retrieve Information from a Black Hole
Quantum teleportation of subatomic particles could be used to retrieve information from a black hole, a new algorithm suggests. The information that can be extracted from… Read more “Quantum Teleportation Can Retrieve Information from a Black Hole”
Unusual form of quantum mechanics
In a new study, physicists at Penn State University have for the first time proposed a way to test a little-understood form of quantum mechanics called nonassociative… Read more “Unusual form of quantum mechanics”
