Exactly 200 years ago, a French engineer introduced an idea that would quantify the universe’s inexorable slide into decay.

To make progress on one of number theory’s most elementary questions, two mathematicians turned to an unlikely source.

In a first, researchers have shown that adding more “qubits” to a quantum computer can make it more resilient. It’s an ...

Three new species of superconductivity were spotted this year, illustrating the myriad ways electrons can join together to ...

In a first, researchers have shown that adding more “qubits” to a quantum computer can make it more resilient. It’s an essential step on the long road to practical applications. Three new species of ...

While some fret about technology’s social impacts, Raj Reddy still believes in the power of artificial intelligence to improve lives.
