Quantum simulators solve physics puzzles with colored dots
By analyzing images made of colored dots created by quantum simulators, ETH researchers have studied a special kind of magnetism. In the future this method could also be used to solve other physics puzzles, for instance in superconductivity.

A wave of retractions is shaking physics
Recent highly publicized scandals have gotten the physics community worried about its reputation—and its future. Over the last five years, several claims of major breakthroughs in quantum computing and superconducting research, published in prestigious journals, have disintegrated as other researchers found they could not reproduce the blockbuster results. Last week, around 50 physicists, scientific journal…

Learn the Algorithms Behind Quantum Computing
Quantum computing leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to process information at incredible speeds. We just posted a Quantum Computing course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel. This course, created by Michael from Quantum Soar, is desi
