MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics
Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly
China unveils first-of-its-kind 'dual-core' quantum computer — its makers say it improves stability and efficiency
A new Chinese quantum computing system pairs two independent neutral-atom arrays in one processor, aiming to boost stability, efficiency and scalability.
Show HN: TripoSplat Running in the Browser
Had some fun with the new TripoSplat from <a href="http://vast.ai" rel="nofollow">http://vast.ai</a>, it's a nice model! Got it to run in the browser by quantizing a bunch of the weights and chunked SDPA. If you have ideas on how to improve I'd love to hear it!
WiMi Explores Multi-Dimensional Pooling Optimization Technology under the Variational Quantum Algorithm Framework
WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WiMi) ("WiMi" or the "Company"), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality ("AR") Technology provider, is exploring multi-dimensional pooling optimization technology under the variational quantum algorithm framework, proposing an innovative solution that integrates the Quantum Haar Transform (QHT) with quantum partial measurement, and constructing a quantum pooling mechanism that possesses both local feature preservation capability and dimension compression ef
University of Chicago team proposes flexible new platform to produce entangled quantum states
Entanglement sits at the heart of quantum technology, but it is rarely easy to make. The most powerful states often demand ...
Orbital Airbag Could Shield Earth From Devastating Solar Storms
A planetary defense system would blunt solar storms with hundreds of tons of gas. Emerging heavy-lift rockets could deploy it in under two months. Extreme space weather could wreak havoc on the satellites, communications networks, and electrical grids that modern society depends on. Researchers have now proposed an ambitious space-based planetary defense system that would weaken solar storms before they hit Earth.The sun regularly emits massive pulses of radiation, energetic particles, and magne
Planet nine mystery deepens as new discovery challenges hidden planet theory
Astronomers have spent years searching for a possible hidden giant planet far beyond Neptune. Unusual orbits among distant Kuiper Belt objects have fueled the Planet Nine theory, but recent discoveries are challenging the idea by showing more stable motion than expected. If Planet Nine exists, it may be much farther away than originally thought.
NASA updates worsening ISS leak after crew safety alert
NASA says a long-running air leak aboard the ISS recently worsened, leading engineers to investigate new suspected crack locations and consider a riskier repair strategy. Astronauts were temporarily moved into a safe haven as a precaution before the repair was postponed for further analysis.
Cloud-tested quantum noise model predicts superconducting qubit errors with sevenfold better accuracy
Researchers from the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland, and Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore have developed a practical, comprehensive noise-modeling framework for a popular class of superconducting quantum processors. Their work, published in the journal PRX Quantum, offers a sevenfold improvement in predictive accuracy over existing approaches.
Hidden geometry explains why kernel methods separate complex data so well
Are two sets of data genuinely different, or is it because of randomness? This question, known as the two-sample testing problem, becomes notoriously difficult in modern datasets, because they are often high-dimensional, complex, and differences between them can take countless subtle forms.
New cryogenic silicon carbide hardware addresses quantum computing bottleneck
Researchers from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) and the Centre for Advanced Semiconductors and Integrated Circuits (CASIC) have achieved a major breakthrough in cryogenic electronics. The team has developed a programmable neuromorphic hardware platform that operates near absolute zero, providing a potential solution for scaling up quantum computers and enabling deep-space exploration. The discovery was publ
MIT affiliates win 2026 Breakthrough, New Horizons prizes
A number of MIT affiliates were recently honored for their research by the Breakthrough Prize Foundation.Stuart H. Orkin ’67 shared a Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences with Swee Lay Thein for their research transforming sickle cell disease and beta-thalassemia from incurable to treatable conditions through gene editing therapy. Their work identified the master switch controlling fetal hemoglobin, leading directly to the development of Casgevy – the first CRISPR-based medicine approved for any
Research uncovers novel electronic properties in quantum material
Florida State University physicists are part of a team that has discovered unusual superconducting states in parts of graphene, with the potential to drive unexpected quantum technologies.
Physicists create new family of Schrödinger-cat states
Quantum mechanics, unlike classical physics, allows objects to exist in more than one state at the same time. This idea is often illustrated by Schrödinger's cat, imagined as being both alive and dead until it is observed. In the laboratory, physicists can create less dramatic but very real versions of this effect by placing atoms, light or motion into two distinct quantum states at once. Creating and controlling these superpositions is essential for applications ranging from quantum computing t

Tabletop experiment helps reconcile fundamental physics
Assistant Professor Haocun Yu is something of a scientific diplomat. In a recent Physical Review Letters publication, she and her colleagues show how a tabletop experiment can bring together two bedrock physics theories that have never been fully reconciled.
Researchers craft a new, simple recipe for highly entangled quantum states
Building useful quantum technologies—from sensors to computers—requires generating highly complex entangled states, in which the properties of particles are deeply intertwined. Producing such states has traditionally required complex tools and carefully engineered setups with many parts.
What is space-time? A mystery at the heart of reality
What if our biggest idea about reality is built on a hidden misunderstanding? A new philosophical look at space-time challenges the popular view that the past, present, and future all exist together in a timeless "block universe." The argument suggests that physicists may be blurring the difference between things that exist and things that merely occur, creating deep confusion about what space-time actually is.
Heat breaks the rules at the nanoscale and scientists used it to their advantage
Scientists used nanoscale gold metamaterials to supercharge heat transfer across tiny gaps, achieving up to four times more energy flow than similar conventional systems. The breakthrough could lead to better chip cooling, more efficient energy technologies, and a new era of precision heat engineering.
