Scientists tap into 2 new quantum methods to catch dark matter suspects

The hunt for dark matter is about to get much cooler. Scientists are developing supercold quantum technology to hunt for the universe’s most elusive and mysterious stuff, which currently constitutes one of science’s biggest mysteries. Despite the fact that dark matter outnumbers the amount of ordinary matter in our universe by about six times, scientists […]

Scientists Made a Quantum Leap in the Fifth State of Matter

“Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links.” The fifth state of matter—the ultracold Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)—has been an invaluable tool in unlocking the secrets of quantum physics. Now, scientists from Columbia University have created a molecular sodium-cesium BEC that’s dipolar, which opens the door for dozens of […]

Local News | Gov. Jared Polis signs quantum bill at CU Boulder

May 29—Gov. Jared Polis signed new legislation at the University of Colorado Boulder on Tuesday to further support the quantum industry in Colorado. The new tax credit bill, which aims to strengthen the quantum industry in the state, was signed at CU Boulder’s JILA Research Institute. JILA is a joint institute between CU Boulder and […]

Why These 3 Quantum Computing Stocks Are Worth the Risk

Quantum computing may be the next big thing, and lots of people are talking about it. The potential to revolutionize industries from pharmaceuticals to finance has investors keeping a close eye on key players in this space. But which companies are leading the charge? To answer this critical question, a trio of Fool.com contributors with […]

Reaching absolute zero for quantum computing now much quicker thanks to breakthrough refrigerator design

A breakthrough cooling technology could help invigorate quantum computing and slash costly preparation time in key scientific experiments by weeks. Scientists often need to generate temperatures close to absolute zero for quantum computing and astronomy, among other uses. Known as the “Big Chill,” such temperatures keep the most sensitive electrical instruments free from interference — […]

A New Study Says Quantum Entanglement May Be Reversible

“Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links.” Time might kind of flow backward for quantum systems, due to present but lower “entropy.” In a new paper, scientists model quantum “entropy” using a generous probabilistic model. This means their holdings could be true for weaker, or less generous, […]
