When something draws us in like a magnet, we take a closer look. When magnets draw in physicists, they take…
Drug discovery is much like working a jigsaw puzzle. The chemical compounds behind drug molecules must be shaped to fit…
To perform quantum computations, quantum bits (qubits) must be cooled down to temperatures in the millikelvin range (close to -273…
A team of researchers from the University of Ottawa's Nexus for Quantum Technologies Institute (NexQT), led by Dr. Francesco Di…
A team of researchers led by Philip Walther at the University of Vienna carried out a pioneering experiment where they…
Iron screws and other so-called ferromagnetic materials are made up of atoms with electrons that act like little magnets. Normally,…
Researchers at the University of Waterloo's Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) have brought together two Nobel prize-winning research concepts to…
If the fractional quantum Hall regime were a series of highways, these highways would have either two or four lanes.…
Creating a quantum computer powerful enough to tackle problems we cannot solve with current computers remains a big challenge for…
In quantum sensing, atomic-scale quantum systems are used to measure electromagnetic fields, as well as properties like rotation, acceleration, and…
