Co-founded by Kanav Setia and Jason Necaise ’20, qBraid lets users access the most popular quantum devices and software programs on an intuitive, cloud-based platform. Quantum computers have the potential to model new molecules and weather patterns better than any …

In her YouTube video Bell’s Theorem Experiments on Entangled Photons, Dr. Fugate shows how polarization-entangled photons violate Bell’s inequality. In this Insight, I will use quantum information theory to explain why such entangled photon-polarization qubits violate the version of Bell’s …

October 31, 2025• Physics 18, 176 Researchers have determined the mechanical properties of a tiny beam made of active particles, laying the groundwork for future micromachines. An array of laser traps places active particles into a rod-shaped structure. After the …

This October, fantasy readers are devouring a sequel: the final installment in Philip Pullman’s trilogy The Book of Dust. The series follows student Lyra Silvertongue as she journeys from Oxford to the far east. Her story features alternate worlds, souls …

Dark stars, in theory, are stars fueled by burning dark matter – these theoretical stars burn faster and brighter than normal stars, though we haven’t actually seen any to date. At least, until now – according to a group of …

A few quick math/physics items (OK, mostly math…): Contributions to next year’s ICM have already been written up by many speakers, and posted on the arXiv. Try this link to find them. There’s a wonderful new result from Kevin Costello …

John Clarke, an emeritus professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley, was awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on quantum tunneling, one of many strange aspects of quantum mechanics. Clarke shared the prize with …
