Quantum computers are shifting from lab curiosities into real machines that can already outperform classical systems on ...

Quantum physics has a reputation for needing exotic hardware, from liquid-helium-cooled qubits to sprawling AI clusters, just to crunch through basic simulations. Now a new “physics shortcut” is ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours. When ...

The fundamental nature of living things challenges assumptions that physicists have held for centuries.

Recent developments in machine learning techniques have been supported by the continuous increase in availability of high-performance computational resources and data. While large volumes of data are ...

Machine learning is becoming an essential part of a physicist’s toolkit. How should new students learn to use it? When Radha Mastandrea started her undergraduate physics program at MIT in 2015, she ...

Technological devices are getting ever smaller, but as they approach the scale at which quantum physics matters, our understanding of how they interact with their environment evaporates. James Millen ...

Xaba’s AI-powered software solutions enables robots to self-generate programming of Robots and CNC machinery. The company hopes to remediate machining methods typically relegated to more expensive and ...
