4,000 year old Bronze Age petroglyphs in Sweden became the sacred symbols of Georgia’s Creek Indians

Scandinavian Bronze Age art is found on most of the famous petroglyphic boulders in the Georgia Gold Belt . . . a mountainous region containing the purest gold in the world. Most of Georgia’s petroglyphs are believed to be contemporary with the Scandinavian Bronze Age, although some are definitely Maya or Arawak in origin. […]

Astronomers detect a new black-widow pulsar

Supermassive black holes observed in the most distant ‘dying’ massive galaxies, revealing co-evolution

Using the wide-field survey capabilities of the Subaru Telescope, astronomers discovered active supermassive black holes, or quasars, in the distant universe and then studied them with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). This work has revealed how galaxies and their central black holes grew 12.9 billion years ago.

Simulations of exoplanet formation may help inform search for extraterrestrial life

Florida Tech astrophysicist Howard Chen is offering new insights to help aid NASA’s search for life beyond Earth. His latest theoretical work investigates the TRAPPIST-1 planetary system, one of the most widely studied exoplanetary systems in the galaxy. It has captured scientists’ attention for its potential to host water, and thus possibly life, on its […]

Universal scheme efficiently generates arbitrary two-qubit gates in superconducting quantum processors

The operation of quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, relies on the implementation of quantum logic gates. These are essentially operations that manipulate qubits, units of information that can exist in a superposition of states and can become entangled.
