"America’s first utility-scale quantum computer will be built and deployed right here at the IQMP." Today, PsiQuantum broke ground on the company’s site at the 128-acre Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park in Chicago, where co-founder and CEO Jeremy O'Brien joined

It's hard to overstate just how off the charts warm the Pacific is right now. The swath of the basin from California to Japan (a HUGE area) from 25N to 60N is ~3F (1.6C) above normal. To put it into math terms that is 6 Sigma/ standard deviations above the mean. I won't bother

F-117 nighthawk but it's a DC magnetron sputtering substrate holder, machined from a solid molybdenum block ( screws and washers also made with Mo )

We added a modestly-sized liquid helium cryoplant to our new facility in California — enough to cool hundreds of chips and operate intermediate-scale systems.

If you can't afford a European vacation, just buy some Nescafe packets, get a single bed with a cover that's too small and leave your shower door open so that water pools on the bathroom floor, and you can have a lot of the experience

new clean bomb/fuel molecule just dropped, made out of sticking six nitrogen atoms together, decompose to nitrogen gas and releasing 185 kcal/mol or 2.2 kcal/g, about twice of TNT and HMX (still far from beating hydrogen combustion though) however it's not stable at room T, and

We introduce a construction for protocols for fault-tolerant quantum computing based on code concatenation and transversal gates. These protocols can be interpreted as families of quantum circuits...
