Silicon Quantum Breakthrough: New Error Detection Method Preserves Entanglement in Qubits A New Generation of Quantum Machines Quantum computers represent a new generation of computing technology that harnesses the principles of quantum mechanics to process information. Unlike conventional machines, they exploit phenomena such as particle entanglement   —  a remarkable connection that binds particles together so closely that measuring one instantly influences the other, regardless of the distance separating them. In theory, quantum machines have the potential to surpass classical computers in tackling complex optimization and computational challenges. Yet they remain extraordinarily delicate. Even minor environmental interference, commonly, referred to as noise , can introduce quantum errors and compromise the integrity of calculations.

China's 2026-2030 Space Roadmap: Mining Ice, Fueling Rockets, Shaping Global Rules China's 2026-30 space plan marks a major shift in the global space race , placing bold emphasis on space mining, orbital data centers and expanded space tourism ambitions . Central Planning Meets Space Strategy: A New Era for 2026-2030 Central planning has long stood at the heart of communist governance. At five-year intervals, state authorities set out national objectives, mapping priorities that may range from reducing infant mortality to boosting crop production. China, the world's largest communist-run  state, has now unveiled its fifteenth five-year plan, outlining its ambitions for 2026-2030. Accompanied by a statement from the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) , the strategy places striking emphasis on the expansion of the country's space capabilities. Among the most culturally resonant elements of the announcement is the Tiangong Kaiwu initiative   —  a s...

Time Crystals Could Transform the Future of Quantum Clocks Time crystals could form the backbone of extraordinarily precise quantum clocks , according to a new mathematical study published in Physical Review Letters, the research, led by Ludmila Viotti at the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics , suggests these unusual systems may outperform conventional clock designs that depend on external stimulation to maintain steady oscillations. What Makes Time Crystals Unique? In physics, a crystal is defined as any system exhibiting a repeating microscopic pattern. Traditional crystals repeat their structure across space. Time crystals , however, display a pattern that repeats in time rather than space. First demonstrated experimentally in 2016, these exotic phases of matter have since become the focus of intense investigation as scientists explore their practical potential.

US Scientists Achieve First Dissipationless Fractional Chern Insulator, Opening New Era for Quantum Devices A team of researchers in the United States has revealed a device capable of carrying electrical current along its fractionally charged edges without wasting energy as heat. Reported in Nature Physics , the breakthrough — led by Xiaodong Xu at the University of Washington — represents the first experimental realization of a dissipationless fractional Chern insulator , a long-theorized state of matter with major potential for next-generation quantum technologies . Understanding the Quantum Hall Effect The quantum Hall effect arises when electrons are confined within a two-dimensional material , cooled to near absolute zero and subjected to intense magnetic fields . As in the classical Hall effect, a voltage forms at right angles to the flow of current — but in this quantum version, the voltage increases in precise, quantized steps . Fractional Quantum Hall Effect and Collectiv...

Can Artificial Intelligence Solve Real Mathematical Research Problems? Scientists Put AI to the Test Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming an increasingly common tool in mathematics , mirroring trends across the wider scientific community . Although mathematics underpins AI development, mathematicians are also using these systems for tasks such as scanning academic literature and spotting errors in draft papers. But their real interest lies in a more demanding test: can AI solve authentic, high-level research problems? Related science and AI coverage: Artificial intelligence and scientific research Human health Awareness Reports The Challenge of Measuring AI's Mathematical Ability Until now, there has been no agreed framework for realistically assessing AI's performance in advanced mathematics. In response, a group of mathematicians set out to evaluate these capabilities in a new study released on the arXiv preprint platform. What sets this work apart is the nature of t...

Topological 6G THz Antenna Breakthrough Could Redefine Wireless Speeds Nature Photonics Study Reveals Compact Passive Chip Delivering Ultra-Fast THz Communication Drawing inspiration from the emerging field of topological photonics , an international team of scientist spanning Singapore, France and the United States has engineered a compact antenna designed to process data-intensive terahertz (THz) signals . Publishing their findings in Nature Photonics, the researchers — led by Ranjan Singh at the University of Notre Dame — suggest that, with continued refinement, the innovation could form a cornerstone of future Sixth-Generation (6G) wireless networks , enabling data transmission at remarkable speeds . Why 6G Needs Terahertz (THz) Antennae In the near future, sixth-generation (6G) networks are anticipated to deliver astonishing data rates of up to one terabit per second — equivalent to transferring around half the storage capacity of a mid-range smartphone in just a single seco...

Quantum Encryption Breakthrough: Secure Keys Transmitted Across 100km of Fiber As concerns grow that quantum computers could eventually render current encryption methods obsolete , researchers are racing to design more secure alternatives. Among the most promising is Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) , a quantum-based encryption technique in which any unauthorized interception disrupts the system and is instantly detectable. Earlier versions of QKD were limited by short transmission distances and the need for highly specialized devices . Now, a Chinese research team has taken a major step forward, successfully maintaining quantum encryption over far greater distances . Reporting in Science, the team demonstrated device-independent QKD (DI-QKD) between two single-atom nodes across 100 kilometers of optical fiber . Why Quantum Key Distribution Matters Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) offers a powerful route to secure communication , but it still relies on physical channels such as fibe...
