Scientists have developed an exact approach to a key quantum error correction problem once believed to be unsolvable, and have shown that what appeared to be hardware-related errors may in fact be due to suboptimal decoding.
An international team of astronomers reports the detection of a peculiar merger of two similar ring galaxies that morphologically resemble an owl's face. The discovery of this galaxy merger, dubbed the "Cosmic Owl," is presented ...
Researchers, in a recent Physical Review Letters paper, introduce a new mechanism that may finally allow ultralight dark photons to be considered serious candidates for dark matter, with promising implications for detection ...
An international team of geoscientists, chemists and climate scientists, has found evidence of a possible ghost plume beneath the territory of Oman. In their paper published in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters, ...
A team of biologists and wildlife specialists from the University of Notre Dame and Duke University, in the U.S., and Amboseli Baboon Research Project, in Kenya, has found evidence that female baboons who have relatively ...
Nitrogen finally joins the elite tier of elements like carbon that can form neutral allotropes—different structural forms of a single chemical element. Researchers from Justus Liebig University, Giessen, Germany, have synthesized ...
Every breath we take in contains 21% oxygen, the gas that makes life on Earth possible. Oxygen, in its combined oxide state, has always been abundant in Earth's crust, but elemental diatomic oxygen became part of our atmosphere ...
By analyzing the data from the DESI Legacy Imaging Survey, Chinese astronomers have investigated a globular cluster known as NGC 5634. Results of the new study, published June 5 on the arXiv pre-print server, provide more ...
A small team of biologists at Stanford University has found evidence that approximately one-third of all vertebrate scavengers are threatened or decreasing in abundance. In their study, published in the Proceedings of the ...
As the number of particles in a physical system increases, its properties can change and different phase transitions (i.e., shifts into different phases of matter) can take place. Microscopic systems (i.e., containing only ...
