Study Identifies Particle “Fingerprints” Revealing QGP Formation

1 day ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ (CAS) Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) have proposed a key indicator that could reveal the emergence of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) by examining particle “fingerprints” created in heavy-ion collisions. Their study was published in Physics Letters B on April 8th, 2025. The finding offers a new perspective on the evolution of matter in the early universe.
Fujitsu and RIKEN Launch Advanced 256-Qubit Quantum System

1 day ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

Fujitsu Limited and RIKEN announced the creation of a 256-qubit superconducting quantum computer, a global leader in its class, located at the RIKEN RQC-FUJITSU Collaboration Center. This new system builds on the advanced technology of their 64-qubit version, launched in October 2023 with support from Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), and incorporates newly developed high-density implementation techniques.

Reviewed by Louis CastelSpace exploration is one of the great stories of the 20th and 21st centuries. Rapid technological advancements have seen humanity land on the moon and send probes further into the cosmos to unveil the secrets of the Universe and answer the great questions about reality and our place in it.
JWST Reveals Intricate Dust Rings of Dying Star Nebula

1 week ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

Thanks to mid-infrared images from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, the gas and dust ejected by a dying star at the center of NGC 1514 were fully visible. A network of sharper holes near the core stars indicates where faster material punched through, and its rings, which are only visible in infrared light, now appear as “fuzzy” aggregates grouped in tangled patterns.
AI System Explores Infinite Design Space to Discover Novel Solutions

1 week ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) have been investigating how an artificial intelligence system can scan an infinitely enormous area of possible designs to discover entirely new solutions. The results were just published in the journal Physical Review X. Extreme cosmic events, such as colliding black holes or star explosions, can create spacetime ripples known as gravitational waves. Their discovery provided new insights into the universe.
How Gravity Influences Qubits

Reviewed by Louis CastelQuantum computing relies on the precise control of delicate quantum states, such as superposition and entanglement, to achieve computational advantages beyond classical systems. However, maintaining these states is challenging due to environmental interactions that cause decoherence.

Challenging the Big Bang: A Multi-Singularity Origin for the Universe

2 weeks ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

In a study published in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity, Dr. Richard Lieu, a physics professor at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), which is a part of The University of Alabama System, suggests that the universe was formed on the steps of multiple singularities rather than the Big Bang alone to explain the universe’s expansion. The new model does not require dark matter or dark energy to explain the expansion of the cosmos or the formation of structures like galaxies.
UK Achieves First Long-Distance Quantum Data Transfer and Secured Video Call

2 weeks ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

Researchers from the Universities of Bristol and Cambridge have successfully demonstrated the UK’s first long-distance ultra-secure data transfer over a quantum communications network, as well as the first long-distance quantum-secured video call. The researchers designed the network, which uses ordinary fibreoptic infrastructure but relies on a range of quantum phenomena to enable ultra-secure data transit.
Chandra Data Unlocks Secrets of Andromeda's Black Hole

2 weeks ago | azoquantum.com | Louis Castel

In a study published in The Astrophysics Journal, a Michigan State University researcher used the NASA Chandra X-Ray Observatory telescope to detect X-rays originating from a black hole. Every large galaxy has a supermassive black hole, but the exact nature of the relationship between the two is still mysterious. After analyzing data [from the Chandra telescope], I had a chill, because I realized I was looking at the X-rays from a supermassive black hole flicker on and off.
