Researchers at Northwestern have found a way to keep quantum networks functioning despite the inherent instability of quantum links.
By strategically adding links, they demonstrated that networks can be maintained with far fewer new connections than expected, offering a more efficient model for quantum communications.

A study has introduced a novel bioprocess that transforms CO2 and electricity into single-cell protein (SCP), a sustainable food source rich in essential amino acids.
<div class=””> <div class=””><br />Amino acids are a set of organic compounds used to build proteins. There are about 500 naturally occurring known amino acids, though only 20 appear in the genetic code. Proteins consist of one or more chains of amino acids called polypeptides. The sequence of the amino acid chain causes the polypeptide to fold into a shape that is biologically active. The amino acid sequences of proteins are encoded in the genes. Nine proteinogenic amino acids are called “essential” for humans because they cannot be produced from other compounds by the human body and so must be taken in as food.<br /></div> </div>

Quantum computing offers mind-boggling problem-solving potential. Here are four ways to buy quantum computing stocks.
In the late 19th century, Karl Weierstrass invented a fractal-like function that was decried as nothing less than a “deplorable evil.” In time, it would transform the foundations of mathematics.

Capcom is experimenting with generative AI to create the “hundreds of thousands” of ideas needed for in-game environments.
As video game development costs rise, publishers are increasingly looking to controversial AI tools to speed up work and cut costs. Call of Duty reportedly sold an “AI-generated cosmetic” for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in late 2023, and fans accused Activision of using generative AI again for a loading screen last year. EA said in September that AI was “the very core” of its business.
In a new interview with Google Cloud Japan, Kazuki Abe, a technical director at Capcom who has worked on huge titles like Monster Hunter: World and Exoprimal, explained how the company is experimenting with implementing AI in its game development processes.
It’s a mission that is less a nostalgic yearning for a prehistoric past than it is a solution to combat climate change, the company’s founders have said. By reintroducing mammoths to Arctic environments, they hope to rejuvenate grasslands and reduce permafrost thaw—a major source of methane emissions.
The potential ripple effects of such an ecological intervention have raised profound ethical and scientific questions but have nonetheless captivated researchers, investors and the public alike.
Colossal Bioscience’s approach to de-extinction is rooted in cutting-edge advances in genetic engineering and synthetic biology.
What if the future of tunnels wasn’t about digging? The Fehmarnbelt Tunnel, the world’s largest immersed tunnel, is being built without a single tunnel boring machine. Instead, engineers are using a bold, unconventional method that’s faster, more precise, and environmentally conscious. Stretching 18 kilometers beneath the Baltic Sea, this $7 billion project is set to transform travel and trade in Europe.
In a landmark achievement, an international team of researchers has successfully engineered the world’s first ideal Weyl semimetal, a quantum crystal that exhibits exotic electromagnetic properties. This innovative material, synthesized from a topological semiconductor, hosts a single pair of Weyl fermions without any irrelevant electronic states, paving the way for potential applications in terahertz devices, high-performance sensors, and low-power electronics.
The discovery, published in Nature, marks a major milestone in the decade-long pursuit of quantum materials, where researchers have been hindered by the presence of undesired electrons that obscure the unique properties of Weyl fermions. By revisiting a theoretically proposed strategy from 2011, the team has created a semimetal with a vanishing energy gap, enabling it to absorb low-frequency light and unlocking new possibilities for optoelectronics and quantum technology.
