A boiling sea of quarks and gluons, including virtual ones—this is how we can imagine the main phase of high-energy proton collisions. It would seem that particles here have significantly more opportunities to evolve than when less numerous and much “better-behaved” secondary particles spread out from the collision point. However, data from the LHC accelerator

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, have the potential of outperforming classical systems on some tasks. Instead of storing information as bits, like classical computers, they rely on so-called qubits, units of information that can simultaneously exist in superpositions of 0 and 1.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
