this might be great, or it might be crap [hysterical, hypey, trivial], so i shall need to listen to ep1 to decide wot that bastard cat's gorn n got up to now 🤭

INTRODUCING — Dead and Alive - ABC listen

Quantum computers could be the next giant leap in technology — transforming how we heal people, how we grow food, how we get around our cities. So how close are we to the quantum future we've been promised? For Science Friction on ABC Radio National, Jacinta Bowler unpacks how the weird world of quantum physics could change everything. Hear about the surprising twists, the quantum cat-fights and the plucky heroes that have defined humanity's effort to build nature's most unpredictable machine.  Dead and Alive is a four-part series from Science Friction on ABC Radio National. Episode 1 is out Wednesday July 8th.

What is the Macroscopic Tunnelling Effect?

100 years ago in Göttingen, the foundations for modern quantum physics were laid down. It transformed our understanding of nature. An important discovery since then has been the #MacroscopicTunnellingEffect, #NobelPrize #QuantumPhysics.

Find out how this extraordinary phenomenon opens up new opportunities in research, and innovation - from superconducting circuits and #QuantumComputers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fpdz0ia7nKg

Singaporean brothers use unsolvable maths equations to build modern, unbreakable encryption

The start-up has patents on encryption that uses Diophantine equations, which have no fixed solution. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.

This simple twist could bring quantum computers closer to reality

Researchers found that twisting layered sheets of hexagonal boron nitride can dramatically change the light produced by quantum emitters embedded within the material. The technique offers an unexpected new level of control over components that could power future quantum computers, communications systems, and sensors.

One-way quantum synchronization could make quantum computers more reliable

Scientists at RIKEN have proposed a new way to make quantum systems synchronize in only one direction—like a one-way street for sound particles known as phonons. The breakthrough combines two quantum effects to create a form of one-way quantum synchronization that remains surprisingly stable even when exposed to manufacturing flaws and environmental noise, two major obstacles that have long hindered real-world quantum technologies.

Quantum computers are coming. Or, at least, that's what current predictions say. These machines harness the power of quantum mechanics, the set of rules governing how physics operates at atomic and sub-atomic scales.
