🥇 Oh, the Turing Award, the Nobel Prize of computing, now celebrates two pioneers of quantum science! 🧙‍♂️💡 But wait, what's this? A quest to access ACM's website feels like solving a quantum puzzle itself—thanks to the mighty #Cloudflare, blocking us mere mortals from basking in the glow of this news. 🔒💥

🥳🎉 Congrats to the 2025 Turing Award winner for quantum information science! Too bad the real mystery here is how anyone will read about it when the website is locked tighter than a quantum computer's error correction. 🔒🔍👩‍💻

Researchers have developed a novel material design that enables #superconductivity to operate at significantly higher temperatures while remaining resilient against strong magnetic fields by physically altering the surface on which the superconducting material rests.

Formic acid #molecules are not two-dimensional as traditionally depicted, but exist as three-dimensional, chiral structures due to constant #quantum zero-point motion that forces atoms out of a flat plane.

Researchers successfully utilized Artificial Intelligence to solve a long-standing problem in particle physics: calculating Quantum Field Theories ( #QFT ) on a lattice with optimal precision.

The #Kondo effect fundamentally changes function based on spin size; while it suppresses magnetism in spin-1/2 systems by forming singlets, it conversely promotes and stabilizes long-range #magnetic order in systems with spin greater than 1/2.

#Quantum #computers could rapidly solve complex problems that would take the most powerful classical #supercomputers decades to unravel. But they’ll need to be large and stable enough to efficiently perform operations.

Linking #quantum #computers to create powerful, high-speed quantum #networks involves entangling #atoms through a fiber cable. The longer the time those entangled atoms maintain quantum coherence, the longer the distance those quantum computers can link to each other.

A pulse of #light sets the tempo in the material. #Atoms in a #crystalline sheet just a few atoms thick begin to move—not randomly, but in a coordinated rhythm, twisting and untwisting in sync like dancers following a beat.

⚛️ Willkommen Quantenwelt - ein Fest für die Forschung! Am 6. November feierte die österreichische Quantencommunity im Wiener Rathaus das Internationale Jahr der Quantenforschung, mit Kabarett, Science-Slam und rund 1.000 Gästen aus Wissenschaft, Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft.

Von Stermann & Grissemann bis zu jungen Forscher*innen im Quanten-Science-Slam: das Event des Exzellenzclusters Quantum Science Austria (quantA) zeigte, wie inspirierend und zugänglich Quantenforschung sein kann und wie stark Österreichs Rolle als internationaler Quanten-Hub ist. ✨

#Materials with enhanced #thermal #conductivity are critical for the development of advanced devices to support applications in #communications, clean energy and #aerospace. But in order to #engineer materials with this property, scientists need to understand how #phonons, or #quantum units of the vibration of atoms, behave in a particular substance.

A new #computational analysis by #theorists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory and Wayne State University supports the idea that #photons (a.k.a. particles of light) colliding with heavy #ions can create a #fluid of “strongly interacting” #particles.
