When a molecule of tryptophan absorbs ultraviolet light, it glows faintly as it lets off lower-frequency energy. This soft glow, known as fluorescence, is a familiar effect. But when many tryptophan ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For the past 30 years, scientists have investigated whether the human brain might require quantum processes to achieve cognition. A study from ...

Forgetting feels like a failure of attention, but physics treats it as a fundamental process with a measurable price. At the smallest scales, erasing information is not free, it consumes energy and ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are increasingly helping scientists to write papers, conduct literature reviews and even design laboratory experiments. Now researchers can add optimizing quantum ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — It’s estimated it can take an AI model over 6,000 joules of energy to generate a single text response. By comparison, your brain needs just 20 joules every second to keep you alive and ...

An interdisciplinary team of researchers are working on a radically new kind of computer called a neuromorphic computer, inspired by the human brain. Mock-up of a quantum photonic device, which could ...

Quantum computers can compare molecules that are much larger than the ones classical computers can compute, Accenture said on its website. “The big hope is that a quantum computer can simulate any ...

Suppose you’re a CIO or senior application planner, and you need to understand whether you should dig into quantum computing ...

Researchers have made a major advance in quantum computing with a new device that is nearly 100 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair. Published in the journal Nature Communications, the ...

How can a computer chip the size of a human hair enhance the future of quantum computing? This is what a recent study published in Nature Communications hopes to address as a team of researchers ...
