In previous articles we addressed quantum computing’s expected impact on the foundational technologies underpinning today’s computing ecosystem. But entire industries stand to be radically transformed by its advent – from health care, wellness, and pharmaceuticals to finance and banking, communication, and energy. Join our team in an exploration of the new product offerings and substantial improvements in productivity various sectors could see in the near future.

A recent experimental study of TbB4 at a low temperature using resonant x-ray Bragg diffraction implies a magnetic symmetry not found in any other rare-earth tetraboride. The evidence for this assertion is a change in the intensity of a TbB4 Bragg spot on reversing the handedness (chirality) of the primary x-ray beam [R. Misawa, K. Arakawa, T. Yoshioka, H. Ueda, F. Iga, K. Tamasaku, Y. Tanaka, and T. Kimura, Phys. Rev. B 108, 134433 (2023)].

Children growing up in the city are often especially fond of time spent at the playground. In many instances, the supervision of those precious moments of freedom is done not by their parents but by the women hired to watch over them and attend to their needs—women who may also have their own children to care for. For the cover of the September 9, 2024, issue, the cartoonist R. Kikuo Johnson chose to portray a scene that is both familiar and overlooked.

With consumer-grade forms of quantum computing nearing availability, this technology has the potential to permeate every aspect of daily life by solving certain types of problems exponentially faster—in some cases performing in minutes what might take months on the most powerful classical computers. The positive impacts of such a leap in processing power, as covered in prior articles, are difficult to overstate. Such processing power and potential also has a cautionary side.

By R. W. JohnsonSource: 16th August 2024 by Editor BizNewsIn a stark warning, David Makhura of the ANC signals that South Africa may be on the brink of a revolution if the GNU fails. Yet, as the government rallies for investment under the guise of patriotism, underlying issues persist: oppressive labour laws, economic restrictions, and rampant crime. Without significant policy shifts, these factors spell an imminent socioeconomic crisis.

By R. Edward JohnsonIn the realm of insurance, predicting future medical claim costs is pivotal for maintaining financial stability and offering competitive premiums. Traditionally, actuarial methods have been the backbone of this process, relying heavily on historical data and statistical models. However, the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized this landscape, offering unprecedented opportunities to enhance prediction accuracy and efficiency.

A common complaint that we hear from local opposition to solar
projects is the potential negative impact on the local environment. A great solution to address these sorts of concerns is
Agrivoltaics, where agricultural activities take place beneath or
near solar panels. This isn't new and has been successfully
implemented in various projects.
Research conducted on habitat-friendly solar energy sites
showcases the positive impact on insect communities and pollination
services.
