Quantum physics

במחשבים הקוונטיים הקיימים, הקיוביטים הם כמו חתול שנעול בתיבה עם רעל שיש סיכוי של 50% שישתחרר ולכן החתול הוא גם "חי" וגם "מת" עד שפותחים את התיבה. אפשר להשוות את
Researchers at the Technological Innovation Institute (TII) in the United Arab Emirates have discovered a way to model the complexities of these calculations that can be scaled up to a full-sized quantum computer. The research allowed them to create more secure encryption designs
The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded this year to Giorgio LaFerrisi for his scientific contribution in understanding complex systems alongside climate researchers. The prize committee decided to focus on the solution he proposed to the spin-glass problem on the grounds that this model is able to explain phenomena
Researchers from Tel Aviv University, the Technion and MIT have teamed up to shed new light on quantum theory in a new series of studies
In 1990 Penrose and Moroff hypothesized that the source of consciousness is in the fractal structure of the microtubules. The movement of the particles on the fractal is apparently explained with the help of the laws of quantum mechanics but this has never been proven. now
Researchers from Tel Aviv University, the Technion and MIT teamed up to shed new light on quantum theory
Where is the quantum in quantum mechanics? It turns out that nature is not discrete at all, as long as there is nothing to force it to be so
The most famous quantum equation was published in 1926 on just two pages. What does she describe and how did Schrödinger think of her?
What is spin? And where did the idea come from? This is a story about small steps, witty guesses and a fight against giants
More than 70 years ago, scientists in the field of physics came up with an idea to use magnetic fields and an atomic property called spin in order to put a body in two places at the same time. Now, a research group from Ben-Gurion University in the Negev
Every week we will delve deeper into a physical idea known in popular literature and bridge the gap between what is shown in the media and what science really states. This time we will start with wave-particle duality, an elusive concept that sometimes raises more questions than answers, but
Researchers from Tel Aviv University were able to describe for the first time a rare physical process that begins with the Higgs boson - the "divine particle" that was first observed about a decade ago - and eventually decays into a pair of rare elementary particles * Observations
The XNUMXs were the years when quantum theory entered the mainstream of physics and brought science and technology to new heights
Led by researchers from the Institute of Physics at Princeton University, an initial discovery has been published that strengthens the controversial hypothesis that the electron is made up of two elementary particles: one carrying a negative electric charge and the other the electron's spin. If
The researchers were able to directly observe the entangled quantum state of two mechanical drums, each with a size close to the diameter of a human hair.
Last Tuesday, the Premilab laboratories in the United States announced that the muon's magnetic moment does not match the theoretical calculations. The experiment conducted in the state of Illinois confirms the anomaly that was discovered several years ago. Is this evidence?
After almost two decades accompanied by technical and financial challenges, on the 7th of April we heard, perhaps, exciting news from Permilab Laboratories in the United States. The second run experiment was set up to measure the muon's magnetic moment
A new record in the measurement of the gravitational field was broken in a study recently published in the prestigious magazine Nature. Measuring gravity on a microscopic scale, which is significantly weaker than the other forces in nature, is a huge technological and scientific challenge. Yet
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) has announced that the Large Hadron Collider has discovered four new particles, but what has changed? Since the accelerator was first activated in 2009, 59 new particles have been discovered, including the Higgs boson
In a joint study by researchers from Germany and Poland, a time crystal in action was filmed for the first time. The micrometer crystal consists of mechanisms at room temperature. With the help of X-ray radiation, the researchers from Berlin recorded the magnetization of the crystal over time and recorded it
In 2010, Edward Witten delivered a lecture to the general public on behalf of the IAS (Institute for Advanced Studies in the USA) on entanglement theory and quantum mechanics. In this article, we will convey the main points of his words with specific extensions
Researchers around the world are looking for an explanation for the mystery of dark matter and the problem of hierarchy. The two problems seem completely different, but according to researchers from Johns Gutenberg University in Germany, both can be solved with the help of a compact fifth dimension.
Innovative navigation technologies that do not depend on cellular or satellite communication, rely on measuring the acceleration of atoms using cold atom interferometers. Recently, Weizmann Institute scientists increased the measuring range of devices
