Physicists and computer scientists have recently expanded the modern theory of the thermodynamics of computation. By combining approaches from statistical physics and computer science, the researchers ...

Quantum computing is an emerging field that uses the principles of quantum mechanics to perform computation. A quantum computer is a very different type of computer that uses the weird rule of quantum ...

The future of work will demand fluency in both science and technology. From addressing climate change to designing ethical AI ...

Nate Porter, a physics and computer science teacher at Maple Hill High School in Schodack worked with Valerie Gordon, an art teacher at Columbia High School in East Greenbush, to develop video gaming ...

It seems that every few months, there’s an exciting breakthrough in quantum computing, a kind of computing that takes advantage of quantum physics to perform calculations exponentially faster than our ...

The nature of quantum entanglement remains an outstanding problem in physics. But Albert Einstein's theories, along with insights from quantum computing, could finally put the mystery to rest. When ...

A course offered at the University of Wisconsin has long been connecting seemingly unrelated fields — the sciences and arts — into an interdisciplinary education. Physics 109 — Physics in the Arts — ...

When Shohini Ghose was studying physics as a kid, she heard certain names repeated over and over. "Einstein, Newton, Schrodinger," she recalls. "They're all men." Ghose is a quantum physicist and a ...
