Collaborate Disseminate
Three teams of scientists from around the world have achieved a major milestone in quantum computing. All three groups demonstrated better than 99 percent accuracy in silicon-based quantum devices, paving the way for practical, scalable quantum compute… Continue reading Silicon quantum computing surpasses 99% accuracy in three studies
Physicists at CERN have discovered that antimatter falls down. Sure, it sounds like an obvious thing, but scientists haven’t yet been able to confirm that it responds to gravity in exactly the same way as regular matter does. A new experiment provides … Continue reading CERN experiments investigate whether antimatter falls up or down
Quantum computers could one day outperform traditional machines at many types of tasks, but hurdles remain. Now, physicists in Japan have successfully entangled groups of three silicon quantum dots for the first time, in a breakthrough that could help … Continue reading Triple entanglement in silicon marks major quantum computer breakthrough
As a region that is subject to a high degree of seismic activity, tsunamis are a real and ever-present threat for the people of Japan. The teams tasked with managing and responding to these risks may soon have a powerful new tool at their disposal, in … Continue reading Supercomputer-developed AI predicts tsunami flooding in real-time on a PC
A breakthrough study from scientists at Japan’s RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research has homed in on the specific characteristics of stem cells in the skin responsible for hair cell regeneration and also identified the optimal ingredients to g… Continue reading Stem cell breakthrough brings baldness cure one step closer
While we’re pretty well across the topography of the Earth’s surface, understanding that of the ocean floor is a whole other ball game. It is said that we know more about the surface of Mars than the seafloor, and scientists are developing all sorts of… Continue reading Stingrays demonstrate mapping potential as they skim the seafloor
For several years, researchers from the RIKEN Center for Brain Science have been running regular zebrafish “fight clubs” to study exactly what kind of neural mechanisms differentiate those that quickly concede from those that are victorious. A new stud… Continue reading Striking study links fight-or-flight brain pathway to appetite hormone
The world’s most powerful supercomputer has just fired up. A newcomer named Fugaku has nabbed the number one spot in the Top500 list of supercomputers, surpassing Summit, the reigning champion of the past few years.
