Clark, Devay, and Martinez just won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for proving quantum mechanics scales beyond atoms. They cooled a Josephson junction to millikelvin temperatures and watched billions of electrons tunnel as a single wave function — something classical physics says is impossible. The proof: escape rate...

What if quantum tunneling is just a crack in the wall.

What explains the quantum tunneling? So basically you're having to go to Millikelvin temperatures to create or even see that quantum mechanics goes beyond atoms, or is this able to be viewed without freezing the shit out of it, ever? If not then how can it be present in nature?

6,100-Qubit Processor Shatters Quantum Computing Record | David Nield, ScienceAlert Another major quantum computing record has been broken, and by a considerable margin: physicists have now built an array containing 6,100 qubits, the largest of its type and way above the thousand or so qubits previous systems contained. It's the work of scientists from the California Institute of Technology, who used cesium atoms as their qubits, trapping them in place with a complex system of lasers that acted as tweezers to keep the atoms as stable as possible. Qubits differ from the classical bits of traditional computers by exploiting what's known as a superposition: not just binary states of 1 or 0, but a spread of probabilities that allows for algorithms that can solve problems considered out of reach of conventional computing methods. Related: Quantum Advantage: A Physicist Explains The Future of Computers A lot of qubits will be needed to make quantum algorithms practical, however. One reason for these large arrays is error correction, which helps overcome the inherent fragility of the qubit by providing a surplus to double-check the machine's operation. "This is an exciting moment for neutral-atom quantum computing," says physicist Manuel Endres. "We can now see a pathway to large error-corrected quantum computers. The building blocks are in place." There was no single breakthrough that enabled this jump in qubit numbers, but rather a series of engineering advancements in many key areas – from the laser tweezers to the ultra-high (very low pressure) vacuum chamber. Stability has also been a problem for quantum computing systems. The innovations in this latest array kept qubits in a superposition state for almost 13 seconds – almost ten times longer than previous configurations had managed. What's more, individual qubits could be manipulated with 99.98 percent accuracy, establishing a significant benchmark in the programmability of quantum technology. "Large scale, with more atoms, is often thought to come at the expense of accuracy, but our results show that we can do both," says physicist Gyohei Nomura. "Qubits aren't useful without quality. Now we have quantity and quality." To make quantum computers a practical alternative to modern supercomputers, more qubits and even greater levels of stability will be required. Experts are tackling the problem from several different angles, which is why records for some types of quantum computer don't necessarily apply to others. Next, the researchers need to work on exploiting entanglement, which will enable the system to make the leap from storing information to actually processing it. Not too far in the future, we could be using these computers to discover new materials, matter, and fundamental laws of physics. "It's exciting that we are creating machines to help us learn about the Universe in ways that only quantum mechanics can teach us," says physicist Hannah Manetsch. Read more:

"For a nation to progress it is important for people to spend time on science, mathematics and literature instead of spending time showing that 5000 years ago their ancestors did science, mathematics and literature." J J Thomson won the 1906 (not 1907 as claimed) Nobel Prize in Physics "in recognition of the great merits of his theoretical and experimental investigations on the conduction of electricity by gases." His son, G P Thomson (not P J Thomson) won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1937 for showing "diffraction properties" of electrons. Erwin Schrodinger never called electrons wavicles and it was not in 1932, but 1926, and Nobel Prize in 1933, for the Schrodinger wave equation describing the behaviour of a particle in a field of force or the change of a physical quantity over time. The equation showed that electrons can have the properties of either waves or particles, and their state can only be calculated with probability This discovery settled the dispute over whether quantum objects such as electrons, atoms, or molecules were waves or particles. Werner Heisenberg never said "we don't know what an electron is. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1932 (not 1956) for his theory of quantum mechanics and its applications, including the discovery of allotropic forms of hydrogen. The original concept of the photon was developed by Albert Einstein. In 1926 the optical physicist Frithiof Wolfers and the chemist Gilbert N. Lewis coined the name photon for these particles. Photons have nothing to do with electrons that was the point of discussion until now. The Hindu scriptures have nothing scientific in them. Absolutely nothing. Like all other Holy scriptures, it's fiction. B M Hegde was a reputable Cardiologist. But now he's an Ayurveda sympathizing quack who has rented out his brain in memory of ancient Sages who wrote fictionalized observations from primal theories. B M Hegde is now a shell of his former self mostly guided by spinal level thinking, brought on by senility and loss of logic. Stop circulating his videos on social media. He's merely the remnant of an intelligence from a bygone era.

$IONQ "The world still massively underestimates just how disruptive it's going to be." Chris Ballance IonQ President of Quantum Computing laid out the whole picture with Kearney's Brent Smolinski. Start to finish: What it is → Quantum computers run on quantum physics, not classical logic - for Ballance, the most powerful form of computing the laws of physics allow. They solve in minutes what a classical machine couldn't crack in the lifetime of the universe. Where we are → "The end of the beginning." Real systems exist, you can buy one from IonQ today, and the field is speed-running the computing revolution. The race now: who scales the best platform the fastest. The value comes in three eras → - Early: problems classical can't touch - chemistry & drug discovery (with AstraZeneca), crash-analysis simulation (with Ansys). - Middle: familiar work, but faster, better or far less energy - AI fine-tuning, most likely hybrid: a GPU farm and a quantum computer side by side, more than the sum of their parts. - Late: unknown. The killer applications are never the ones you expect. Quantum advantage → Not a benchmark stunt - a better solution per dollar invested in quantum than classical. Hard to spot, but already real for certain early problems. The economics → His sharpest line: compute is now just a markup on electricity. With a fixed budget, the question is classical or quantum - and some of the first quantum wins won't be faster, just orders of magnitude cheaper. The architectures → Superconducting (IBM, Google): first-mover lead and standard chip fabs - but chips chilled to a thousandth of a degree above absolute zero, huge energy-hungry refrigeration, and a quantum chip "three orders of magnitude harder" than Intel's toughest. It loses coherence fast, too: many redundant qubits, far bigger machines. Trapped ions (IonQ): individual atoms - and an atom is "guaranteed perfect across the universe." No fab variation, far lower error rates, no exotic cooling. The atoms are run by an ordinary classical chip, so IonQ rides the trillion-dollar semiconductor industry instead of inventing a quantum chip. (Oxford Ionics' Electronic Qubit Control, SkyWater foundry) Why it's green → A future million-qubit machine is about a dozen racks drawing minuscule power - orders of magnitude less than a large AI data center. Classical can still gain 10–100×, but not the orders of magnitude quantum unlocks. His call: within ~10 years, some 100-megawatt NVIDIA clusters could sit vacant. Quick-fire → - Most over-hyped: changing biology. - Most underestimated risk: integrating into real customer workflows. - First to adopt: finance ) portfolio analysis & fraud prevention. - Most exciting: the speed of change over the next 24 months. The personal why → What gets him out of bed: reinventing how we think about computation and the belief that the world still underestimates how disruptive this will be. For leaders → Quantum computing is here now. Adopting any new tech takes 2-3 years, so the moment to start isn't next year it's now, so you're ready when the hardware lands.

D-Wave announced a scientific breakthrough published in the esteemed journal Science Magazine, confirming that its annealing quantum computer outperformed one of the world’s most powerful classical supercomputers in solving a complex magnetic materials simulation problem with relevance to materials discovery. The new landmark peer-reviewed paper, “Beyond-Classical Computation in Quantum Simulation,” validates this achievement as the world’s first and only demonstration of quantum computational supremacy on a useful problem. An international collaboration of scientists led by D-Wave performed simulations of quantum dynamics in programmable spin glasses—a computationally hard magnetic materials simulation problem with known applications to business and science—on both D-Wave’s Advantage2™ prototype annealing quantum computer and the Frontier supercomputer at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge Lab. D-Wave’s quantum computer performed a complex simulation in minutes and with a level of accuracy that would take nearly a million years using the supercomputer. In addition, it would require more than the world’s annual electricity consumption to solve this problem using the supercomputer, which is built with graphics processing unit (GPU) clusters. For decades, scientists have aspired to build a quantum computer capable of solving complex materials simulation problems beyond the reach of classical computers. D-Wave's advancements in quantum hardware have made it possible for its annealing quantum computers to process these types of problems for the first time. Magnetic materials simulations, like those conducted in this work, use computer models to study how tiny particles not visible to the human eye react to external factors. Magnetic materials are widely used in medical imaging, electronics, superconductors, electrical networks, sensors, and motors. This is an incredibly important achievement. Please join us in congratulating the D-Wave team and our global collaborators on this remarkable milestone. It’s a significant moment for the quantum computing industry.

🔱IIT Madras professor V. Balakrishnan walks a full classical physics class through the foundations that connect Newton to quantum mechanics - he does it for free. US universities charge over $3,000 per credit to sit in a room and hear this material. Balakrishnan covers more ground in one semester than most Western physics programs fit into two years - and his first lecture alone reframes why classical mechanics matters at all. He opens not with equations but with a question most professors skip: why does classical physics still exist when quantum mechanics replaced it? The answer restructures everything. By the time the introduction ends, you are already inside the mathematical skeleton that connects Newton, Lagrange, Hamilton, and Feynman into one coherent picture. No paywalled syllabus. No overpriced textbook required. Just a blackboard, a professor who clearly spent decades thinking about how to teach this, and a playlist that runs 47 lectures deep. NPTEL filmed the actual university curriculum at 7 Indian Institutes of Technology and put all of it online. Over 3,200 courses, zero subscription. Western institutions have known about this for years and said nothing. ▪ Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics from first principles ▪ Nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory included in the same course ▪ Graduate level, no prerequisites assumed beyond calculus 🔖 Bookmark before the algorithm buries it - this is the kind of content paid platforms charge hundreds of dollars to approximate.
