Physicists turned a quantum computer into a time crystal--sci-fi concepts are now cutting-edge reality.

Physicists Transformed a Quantum Computer Into a Time Crystal For the first time, physicists have transformed a quantum processor into a state of matter that seems to defy physics, a breakthrough that could be a step toward making quantum computing more practical.

Revolutionary transistors? Tweaking materials could transform tech as we know it.

By tweaking materials, scientists create transistors that remember A team of Johns Hopkins materials scientists made a surprising discovery that could change the way memory works in electronics. By tweaking the materials used in organic material-based logic switches called transistors, they created a new kind of memristor—devices that can remember past charging s...

Deja vu has a mind-twisting counterpart, and it's even more uncanny.

The Opposite of Déjà Vu Exists And Is Even More Uncanny Repetition has a strange relationship with the mind.

Measuring particle mass just got a precision upgrade--unlocking the universe's secrets, one particle at a time.

Particle that only has mass when moving in one direction observed for first time For the first time, scientists have observed a collection of particles, also known as a quasiparticle, that's massless when moving one direction but has mass in the other direction. The quasiparticle, called a semi-Dirac fermion, was first theorized 16 years ago, but was only recently spotted inside...

Listening can grow your brain! Adults form new neurons key to auditory learning.

Adults grow new brain cells – and these neurons are key to learning by listening Understanding how new neurons affect brain function throughout adulthood can offer new approaches to treating epilepsy and dementia.
