Quantum computers still face limits when it comes to storing information. Researchers at ETH Zurich are now turning to ...

Scientists in Switzerland have created a 0.3-inch quantum chip that stores information through tiny mechanical vibrations ...

String theory attempts to unify general relativity and quantum theory. Popular in the 1990s, string theory fell out of favor as it failed to provide testable predictions and required ten dimensions ...

Physicists may have uncovered a surprising new clue that string theory—the idea that the universe is built from unimaginably tiny vibrating strings—could be more than just a mathematical fantasy.

A month ago, my boyfriend came into the living room and declared that I had finally lost it. As the partner of a beauty editor, he’s used to my experiments for work, but seeing me standing on a ...

With just a handful of assumptions, string theory stands alone. Based on the idea that all subatomic particles are made up of vibrating strings of energy, string theory is a candidate for a “theory of ...

Vibration plates aren’t generally harmful, but many promoters overstate the benefits of these platforms. Most research showing vibration plates are beneficial has involved performing exercise on the ...

Biological systems are notoriously tough to model, especially when it comes to figuring out the axons, neurons, blood vessels, and other structural components of gray matter, or the tissue that makes ...
