Improving coseismic slip measurements
Geologists describe the process of an earthquake as occurring in three distinct phases. During the interseismic phase, strain builds up along a fault as adjacent pieces of crust catch onto one another and move in opposite directions. This strain even.....»»
Researchers urge alliances to ensure supply chain security

Nondestructive measurement realized in ytterbium qubits, aiding scalable neutral atom quantum computing
Atoms of the metal ytterbium-171 may be the closest things in nature to perfect qubits. A recent study shows how to use them for repeated quantum measurements and qubit rotations, which may aid in the development of scalable quantum computing......»»
Researchers use measurements to generate quantum entanglement and teleportation
Quantum mechanics is full of weird phenomena, but perhaps none as weird as the role measurement plays in the theory. Since a measurement tends to destroy the "quantumness" of a system, it seems to be the mysterious link between the quantum and classi.....»»
