Scientists discover forgotten particle that could unlock quantum computers

Quantum computers have the potential to solve problems far beyond the reach of today’s fastest supercomputers. But today’s machines are notoriously fragile. The quantum bits, or “qubits,” that store and process information are easily disrupted by their environment, leading to errors that quickly accumulate. One of the most promising approaches to overcoming this challenge is…

Tiny reactor boosts fusion with a sponge-like trick

Using a small bench-top reactor, researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have demonstrated that electrochemically loading a solid metal target with deuterium fuel can boost nuclear fusion rates. Large-scale magnetic confinement fusion — which puts plasmas under extreme temperatures and pressure — is being widely explored as a method for clean energy generation….
