The firm says it has solved a problem on a quantum processor faster than a classical computer, and is optimistic about future scientific applications.

Journals are considering doing identity checks to expose fake authors — but there are downsides.

By applying the full framework of quantum field theory, it is shown that local classical theories of gravity can transmit quantum information and, thus, generate entanglement through physical, local processes.

Some researchers want an upgraded version of Alan Turing’s AI thought experiment; others want it scrapped entirely. Plus, why the rate of peanut allergies might have dropped in the United States and a blood test for Alzheimer’s disease.

Decoded quantum interferometry is a quantum algorithm that uses the quantum Fourier transform to reduce optimization problems to decoding problems.

The bacterial ubiquitin ligase NleL evades host defence mechanisms both by inhibiting pyroptosis and by preventing infected intestinal epithelial cells from being extruded into the lumen and expelled in the faeces.

Copper-impurity-free Si₃N₄ photonic integrated circuits reduce thermal absorption and enable robust, deterministic soliton generation.
