Researchers have developed pixels that can not only create images, but also analyse them. In the future, this could lead to ...

Two decades ago this summer, a bottlenose dolphin made international headlines after he was spotted swimming through Sarasota ...

We often feel that we are "on the same wavelength" with one another, but can science identify and engineer this phenomenon?

In 1927, the term "picture element," later abbreviated to "pixel," appeared for the first time in the American technology magazine Wireless World. Today, pixels are everywhere: in computer screens and ...

Reconstructed Wigner function of a superposition of two trisqueezed states. Its sixfold rotational symmetry and regions of Wigner negativity reveal highly non-classical quantum interference in the ion ...

In 2024, on the diplomatic sidelines of the 9th Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, China pledged $50bn in investment and support to the three junta-led states of Burkina Faso, Mali and ...

For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...

Conventional computers store and process data in bits, which can only be in one of two states: 1 or 0. Quantum computers use "qubits," which (through the peculiar properties of quantum mechanics) can ...

Researchers have smashed a new record in quantum mechanics, creating the largest ever ‘superposition’ – a strange state in which an object can exist in multiple locations at the same time. To achieve ...

SINGAPORE – There have been no cases of 5G-related interference affecting aircraft operations in Singapore so far, but the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) is continuing to monitor ...

A thought experiment that was at the heart of an argument between famed physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr in 1927 has finally been made real. Its findings elucidate one of the core mysteries ...
