Quantum computers are seen as the future of computing, with the potential to outperform conventional computers in certain tasks. However, their large-scale deployment is hindered by the sensitivity to noise, which leads to errors in computations. Quantum error correction is a technique designed to address these errors on-the-fly, while quantum error mitigation works more indirectly

In a groundbreaking development, a group of chemists at the University of Copenhagen have successfully crafted an AI application designed to determine the phase of x-rays that have diffracted through crystals. This innovative technology marks a significant leap forward in the realm of predicting the structures of small molecules. Anders Larsen, Toms Rekis, and Anders
The field of quantum sensing has taken a significant leap forward with the development of a new 2D quantum sensing chip using hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). This groundbreaking technology, developed by researchers at TMOS and RMIT University, promises to revolutionize the way we detect temperature anomalies and magnetic fields in any direction. The paper, published
In the realm of solar cells and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the kinetics of molecules in an excited state are constantly battling against annihilation. The intricate systems governing these devices must find a delicate balance between processes that result in the loss of energy and those that lead to the desired outcome. One of the major
Advancements in the field of molecular dynamics simulations have always been hindered by the complex interactions between atoms and electrons within molecules. However, researchers from the Berlin Institute for the Foundations of Learning and Data (BIFOLD) at TU Berlin and Google DeepMind have recently made a groundbreaking discovery in machine learning algorithms that could revolutionize
The Higgs boson, a fundamental particle responsible for the mass and interactions of all other particles, plays a crucial role in our understanding of the universe. The existence of the Higgs field, akin to a still water bath that permeates the universe, allows us to observe consistent masses and interactions across the cosmos. However, the
The question of why the universe contains matter but virtually no antimatter has puzzled scientists for decades. In a groundbreaking development, the BASE international research collaboration at CERN has made significant progress in understanding this fundamental asymmetry. Led by Professor Dr. Stefan Ulmer from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, the team has devised an innovative experimental
The detection of gravitational waves has opened up a whole new world of possibilities in the field of physics. When two black holes collide, they create ripples in space and time, as predicted by Einstein in 1916. The ability to observe these gravitational waves is a monumental achievement that requires incredibly advanced technology and precision.
The discovery of the hyper-Raman effect, a more advanced phenomenon compared to simple Raman, has opened up new possibilities in various scientific fields. While the traditional Raman effect involves the scattering of light particles and a color change, hyper-Raman occurs when two photons impact the molecule simultaneously, resulting in improved imaging capabilities like deeper penetration
Recent studies have shed light on the potential impact of global warming on the Atlantic Meridional Ocean Current (AMOC) and its implications for the climate in Northern Europe. Despite the region’s current relatively warm climate, there is growing concern that this warmth could disappear by the turn of the century if the AMOC were to
