We imagine physics is objective. But quantum physics found the act of human observation changes the outcome of experiment. Many scientists assume this central role of the observer is limited to just quantum physics. But is this an error? As Heisenberg puts it, \.

Purdue quantum researchers twist double bilayers of an antiferromagnet to demonstrate tunable moiré magnetism.

Twistronics isn’t a new dance move, exercise equipment, or new music fad. No, it’s much cooler than any of that. It is an exciting new development in quantum physics and material science where van der Waals materials are stacked on top of each other in layers, like sheets of paper in a ream that can easily twist and rotate while remaining flat, and quantum physicists have used these stacks to discover intriguing quantum phenomena.

Adding the concept of quantum spin with twisted double bilayers of an antiferromagnet, it is possible to have tunable moiré magnetism. This suggests a new class of material platform for the next step in twistronics: spintronics. This new science could lead to promising memory and spin-logic devices, opening the world of physics up to a whole new avenue with spintronic applications.

Let’s kick off the Holiday Season in style, shall we? Like, say, with a single few people even know exist, from a massive pop culture phenomenon of the early ’80s? YES PLEASE! This really needs no introduction. It’s KITT, the Amazing Car of Tomorrow, in full hero mode, Saving Santa from bad weather, and then making the rounds to bring joy and cheer on Christmas Morning — All told in an early ’80s rap, over an electro groove lifted from the Knight Rider theme song. Hopefully you’ve already hit play, but if you haven’t yet, HIT PLAY NOW! And if you have, then PLAY IT AGAIN! And of course, I’d like to wish you all a Verry Merry Christmas! Like it? Subscribe!

In the grandeur of the universe, the tapestry of life may be woven from stranger threads than we ever dared to dream, and spun from materials far different to our own.\

We listened to the ‘music’ of a vast number of stars — some of them 15,000 light-years away!

The afterlife Jones made.

For as long as we have had history and likely before, people have contemplated a life after this one, but might we one day create artificial afterlives? And if so, will we create heavens or hells?\

How do we go from 100 to 200 to 1000? PASQAL, a quantum computing startup, is using LASERS. They’ve demonstrated 100 and 200 qubit systems, now they’re talking about making 1000. Here’s the mockup of their system.
