When a molecule absorbs light, it undergoes a whirlwind of quantum-mechanical transformations. Electrons jump between energy levels, atoms vibrate, and chemical bonds shift—all within millionths of a ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer ...
Physicists have used a quantum computer to simulate the first-ever holographic wormhole and transport information through it. The "baby" wormhole, created on Google's Sycamore 2 quantum computer was ...
The Santa Ana winds were already blowing hard when I ran the first worm simulation. I’m no hacker, but it was easy enough: Open a Terminal shell, paste some commands from GitHub, watch characters ...
Scientists have developed a new computer model that simulates how moon dust behaves in lunar gravity. They hope it will help future robotic moon explorers to do their job more safely. When you ...
Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...
I was invited by the American Humanist Association to present the arguments of my paper “Natural Evil and the Simulation Hypothesis” at the national conference this past weekend. It was fun: I met a ...
This research explores the use of artificial intelligence to simulate how cities will grow vertically. By learning how cities have evolved in the recent past, genetic algorithms can successfully ...
