Read more 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. To meet this challenge, researchers at MIT and elsewhere are developing quantum computers based on ultra-compact photonic chips. These chip-based systems offer a scalable alternative to some existing quantum computers, which rely on bulky optical equipment. Show less

Since launching in 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope has found hundreds of distant and apparently bright galaxies dubbed "little red dots", and now it seems they may each carry a baby black hole

Manchester United have yet to add to their squad during the January transfer window as ex-player Michael Carrick begins his spell as interim manager at Old Trafford

Contrairement aux idées reçues, c’est la Chine qui mène la danse dans le secteur des énergies renouvelables avec une production supérieure à celle de l’Europe.

Read more Hochul’s proposal is too little, too late as part of the Climate Act implementation without revising the schedule.  It is necessary first to pause implementation and reassess the schedule and ambition of the Act so that it can play a meaningful role without negatively impacting the reliability of the utility system as it is presently doing.
