What is Quantum Essence in Starfield?
Looting is the name of the game in Starfield, but not everything you pick up is recognizable. Quantum Essence won't drop until later, and is very mysterious......»»
Researcher explores how you can stretch your mind to grasp quantum entanglement
My new article, "Quantum Entanglement of Optical Photons: The First Experiment, 1964–67," is intended to convey the spirit of a small research project that reaches into uncharted territory. The article breaks with tradition, as it offers a first-pe.....»»
Langbeinites show talents as 3D quantum spin liquids
A 3D quantum spin liquid has been discovered in the vicinity of a member of the langbeinite family. The material's specific crystalline structure and the resulting magnetic interactions induce an unusual behavior that can be traced back to an island.....»»
New varactor enhances quantum dot device measurements at millikelvin temperatures
The development of quantum computing systems relies on the ability to rapidly and precisely measure these systems' electrical properties, such as their underlying charge and spin states. These measurements are typically collected using radio-frequenc.....»»
Unconventional interface superconductor could benefit quantum computing
A multi-institutional team of scientists in the United States, led by physicist Peng Wei at the University of California, Riverside, has developed a new superconductor material that could potentially be used in quantum computing and be a candidate "t.....»»
Could we ever harness quantum vacuum energy?
The fabric of spacetime is roiling with vibrating quantum fields, known as vacuum energy. It's right there, everywhere we look. But could we ever get anything out of it?.....»»

New research using neural networks, a form of brain-inspired AI, proposes a solution to the tough challenge of modeling the states of molecules......»»
Study uncovers condensed-matter dark states in a quantum system with two pairs of sublattices
Dark states are quantum states in which a system does not interact with external fields, such as light (i.e., photons) or electromagnetic fields. These states, which generally occur due to interferences between the pathways through which a system int.....»»
15 Xbox Starfield Mods You Should Try Right Now
Starfield mods are now available for Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S and there are already hundreds available to download right now. Once you get the June Starfield update installed, you can head to the Creations section in the game’s main menu.....»»
A maximally entangled quantum state with a fixed spectrum does not exist in the presence of noise, mathematician claims
For more than 20 years, quantum researchers have wondered whether a quantum system can have maximum entanglement in the presence of noise. A mathematician from Spain recently answered the question: No......»»
Physics meets machine learning for better cyclone predictions
Time is of the essence in tropical cyclone prediction: The more warning time a community has, the better prepared its members will be when a storm makes landfall. Currently, the path and nature of tropical cyclones can be predicted up to only five da.....»»
Researchers observe Floquet states in colloidal nanoplatelets driven by visible pulses
Solution-processed semiconductor nanocrystals are also called colloidal quantum dots (QDs). While the concept of size-dependent quantum effects had long been known to physicists, a sculpture of the theory into real nanodimensional objects remained im.....»»
Starfield: Shattered Space launches next month, but its getting a big update today
Get ready for the Shattered Space DLC for Starfield this September by crusing around in the new REV-8 rover......»»
Starfield August Update: What’s New
Bethesda’s latest Starfield update is a big one. The new software brings much needed bug fixes and it also features the highly anticipated land vehicle. Most Starfield patches go though a beta process before they are released to the public, but.....»»
The closest thing to C-3PO can be yours – if you have $16,000

The Cold Atom Lab on the International Space Station has made use of atom interferometry in space to detect environmental changes......»»
Physicists uncover new phenomena in fractional quantum Hall effects
Imagine a two-dimensional flatland, instead of our three-dimensional world, where the rules of physics are turned on their head and particles like electrons defy expectations to reveal new secrets. That's exactly what a team of researchers, including.....»»
Theoretical research holds promise for advancing modular quantum information processing
The operation of a quantum computer relies on encoding and processing information in the form of quantum bits—defined by two states of quantum systems such as electrons and photons. Unlike binary bits used in classical computers, quantum bits can e.....»»
NIST releases finalized post-quantum encryption standards
NIST has finalized its principal set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from a quantum computer. The announced algorithms are specified in the first completed standards from NIST’s post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standardiz.....»»
