We will soon be able to talk with other species. Which will be first?
Could the bottlenose dolphin be the first non-human species to have its language decoded? tephen Frink/Getty Images; Shutterstock Sophie Cohen-Bodénès knew she was onto something when she saw the cuttlefish extend two arms upwards while twisting its six others together. It was making what she calls the “up” sign – and, intriguingly, it was throwing…

Google’s quantum computer just simulated the hidden strings of the Universe
The research, published in the academic journal Nature, represents an essential step in quantum computing and demonstrates its potential by directly simulating fundamental interactions with Google’s quantum processor. In the future, researchers could use this approach to gain deeper insights into particle physics, quantum materials, and even the nature of space and time itself. The…
The Higgs boson just revealed a new secret at the Large Hadron Collider
The ATLAS Collaboration finds evidence of Higgs-boson decays to muons and improves sensitivity to Higgs-boson decays to a Z boson and a photon. Since the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, physicists have made major strides in exploring its properties. Does that mean the subject is done and dusted? Far from it! In new…
500-million-year-old “squid” were actually ferocious worms
Remarkable fossils found in North Greenland have helped researchers solve a 500-million-year-old puzzle surrounding squid-like ancestors. It was previously thought ancient organisms called nectocaridids, which bear a resemblance to squid, were a type of cephalopod – marine molluscs with tentacles and a prominent head. But scientists, co-led by the University of Bristol, have now shown…
Tariffs Are Driving up Premiums for Small Businesses
Small businesses may expect that the recent tariffs levied by President Trump will drive up the price of multiple imported goods from various countries. But less expected is how these trade policies may ripple through employee health benefits. Most recently, President Trump indicated that the administration will phase in tariffs on pharmaceutical imports—starting with a…
Scientists crack a 60-year-old quantum mystery
Researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, have created a novel pathway into the study of the elusive quantum states in superconducting vortices. The existence of these was flouted in the 1960s, but has remained very difficult to verify directly because those states are squeezed into energy scales smaller than one can typically…
