On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made a significant discovery regarding ...

At the center of this change is a method that blends the rigor of quantum mechanics with the messy reality of real‑world materials, which rarely fit neatly into a single theoretical box. By carving ...

A quantum computer and conventional supercomputer that work together could become an invaluable tool for understanding chemicals. A collaboration between IBM and the Japanese scientific institute ...

At first glance, quantum mechanics might seem strange or even impossible. That’s because our everyday experiences of the laws of physics are very different from how matter and energy behave at the ...

Protons, the positively charged particles that help build every atom in our bodies, are starting to look less like classical ...

As high-power lasers have become increasingly important in scientific research, engineers have been working to build more powerful beam emitters. Now Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) in ...

Tech giant Microsoft and leading quantum computer developer Quantinuum have hit two more significant markers on the path towards scientific quantum advantage. They have successfully created 12 highly ...

SMU have created SmartCADD. This open-source virtual tool combines artificial intelligence, quantum mechanics and Computer Assisted Drug Design (CADD) techniques to speed up the screening of chemical ...

Theoretical quantum chemistry is a central discipline that applies the principles of quantum mechanics to decipher and predict the behaviour of molecular systems. It bridges abstract mathematical ...

Research from Gagliardi Group offers a powerful new toolkit to understand and eventually design complex materials, including high-temperature superconductors and solar cell semiconductors. (Image: ...
