This has led scientists to explore alternative approaches to make machine learning more energy-

Recent research conducted by the HEFTY Topical Collaboration delved into the recombination of charm and bottom quarks into Bc mesons within the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). This investigation aimed to shed light on the kinetics of heavy-quark bound states within the expanding QGP fireball resulting from high-energy heavy-ion collisions. The researchers developed a transport model to

Quantum simulation has been a hot topic in the field of physics, with researchers exploring its potential to unravel complex quantum phenomena. A recent study published in Nature sheds light on the antiferromagnetic phase transition within a large-scale quantum simulator of the fermionic Hubbard model (FHM). Led by a team from the University of Science

Time crystals, as proposed by Nobel Prize winner Frank Wilczek in 2012, are objects that repeat themselves not in space, but in time. This phenomenon raises questions about the possibility of a periodic rhythm emerging spontaneously in a system, independent of any imposed rhythm or external time constraints. While the concept of time crystals has

In a recent study published in Physical Review Letters, a research team led by academician Guo Guangcan and professors Li Chuanfeng and Liu Biheng from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of quantum physics. The team has successfully constructed a coherent superposition of quantum

Researchers at Finland’s Aalto University have recently made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of microbiology by utilizing magnets to manipulate the movement of bacteria.

With the collaboration of several prestigious institutions and the utilization of cutting-edge technology, the team has made significant strides in enhancing our understanding of magnetic phenomena at the atomic level. This groundbreaking discovery opens up

Dark matter, a substance that makes up approximately 80% of the matter in the universe, remains one of the greatest enigmas of modern science. Despite being invisible and undetectable through conventional means, its presence is undeniable due to the gravitational effects it exerts on the visible universe. Scientists have long been puzzled by the elusive

Transport networks, such as river systems, play a crucial role in the functioning of various natural and human-made systems. Understanding how these networks form and evolve is essential for optimizing their stability and resilience. While tree-like structures are efficient for transport, networks with loops have shown to be more damage-resistant. Researchers from the Faculty of
