Quantum computing is an alternative computing paradigm that exploits the principles of quantum mechanics to enable intrinsic and massive parallelism in computation. This potential quantum advantage could have significant implications for the design of future computational intelligence systems, where the increasing availability of data will necessitate ever-increasing computational power. However, in the current NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) era, quantum computers face limitations in qubit quality, coherence, and gate fidelity. Computational intelligence can play a crucial role in optimizing and mitigating these limitations by enhancing error correction, guiding quantum circuit design, and developing hybrid classical-quantum algorithms that maximize the performance of NISQ devices. This webinar aims to explore the intersection of quantum computing and computational intelligence, focusing on efficient strategies for using NISQ-era devices in the design of quantum-based computational intelligence systems.

Quantum physics, space documentary, and the fabric of reality—these are not just abstract ideas but the keys to unlocking the mysteries of existence. What is reality? Is it an illusion, a simulation, or something far beyond our comprehension? In this mind-expanding documentary, we explore the very fabric of the universe, from the bizarre behavior of quantum mechanics to the cosmic forces shaping space and time.

The universe is a grand puzzle, and science has only begun to unravel its secrets. Quantum physics reveals a world where particles exist in multiple states at once, where time behaves unpredictably, and where observation itself shapes reality. But how does this strange quantum realm connect to the vast expanse of space? Is the fabric of reality woven with unseen forces that govern everything, from black holes to the flow of time itself?

This space documentary takes you on a journey through the cutting-edge theories that challenge our understanding of the cosmos. Could our universe be a hologram? Is time an illusion? Do parallel realities exist beyond our perception? With stunning visuals, expert insights, and mind-bending concepts, we push the boundaries of what we know about existence.

Euclid, a space telescope on a mission to uncover the secrets of dark matter and dark energy, has already made a stunning discovery: a perfectly formed Einstein ring hidden in a well-known galaxy.

This rare phenomenon, predicted by Einstein’s theory of relativity, reveals the power of gravitational lensing, allowing scientists to glimpse far-off galaxies otherwise invisible. The find is a testament to Euclid’s groundbreaking capabilities, suggesting a future filled with even more cosmic surprises.

How fast can solar systems orbit our Milky Way Galaxy? This is what a recent study published in The Astronomical Journal hopes to address as an international team of researchers confirmed the existence of a star and exoplanet companion orbiting within the Milky Way’s galactic bulge that could be the fastest orbiting exoplanet system ever found. This study has the potential to help scientists better understand the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems throughout the Milky Way and potentially beyond.

For the study, the researchers analyzed data from a 2011 study published in The Astrophysical Journal comprised of some of the same team that used the microlensing method to identify the existence of two objects orbiting near the Milky Way’s galactic bulge, which is a region containing a high-density number of stars. At the time, those researchers hypothesized the objects were either a gas giant with an exomoon or a fast-moving exoplanetary system. The researchers on this recent study deduced that the objects consisted of a star approximately 20 percent the size of our Sun and an exoplanet approximately 30 times the size of Earth.

But the surprise was finding out the pair’s speed by comparing their 2011 location to its 2021 location, which the team estimated is traveling at approximately 600 kilometers per second (372 miles per second), or approximately 2.1 kilometers per hour (1.3 million miles per hour). At this speed, the objects will leave the Milky Way millions of years from now since it surpasses our galaxy’s escape velocity. For context, our solar system is orbiting our Milky Way at approximately 828,000 kilometers per hour (515,000 miles per hour).

When world-leading teams join forces, new findings are bound to be made. This is what happened when quantum physicists from the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) and the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) in Heidelberg combined atomic and nuclear physics with unprecedented accuracy using two different methods of measurement.

Together with new calculations of the structure of atomic nuclei, theoretical physicists from the Technical University of Darmstadt and Leibniz University Hannover were able to show that measurements on the electron shell of an atom can provide information about the deformation of the atomic nucleus. At the same time, the precision measurements have set new limits regarding the strength of a potential dark force between neutrons and electrons.

The results have been published in the current issue of the journal Physical Review Letters.

Space and cooling limitations restrict the number of usable qubits. However, researchers believe connecting two qubits in separate dilution refrigerators using an optical fiber is now possible.

“The infrastructure is available, and we can now build the first simple quantum computing networks,” says Arnold.

While the ISTA physicists have made significant progress in developing superconducting quantum hardware, more work is needed. Their prototype has limited performance, especially in terms of optical power. Nevertheless, it proves that a fully optical readout of superconducting qubits is possible, and further advancements will depend on the industry.

A team of researchers at the University of Konstanz has succeeded in adapting an artificial intelligence (AI) system to reliably assist with making nanoparticle measurements which speeds up the research process significantly.

The findings have been published in Scientific Reports (“Pre-trained artificial intelligence-aided analysis of nanoparticles using the segment anything model”).

Nanoparticle researchers spend most of their time on one thing: counting and measuring nanoparticles. Each step of the way, they have to check their results. They usually do this by analyzing microscopic images of hundreds of nanoparticles packed tightly together. Counting and measuring them takes a long time, but this work is essential for completing the statistical analyses required for conducting the next, suitably optimized nanoparticle synthesis.
