CERN Deploys Cutting-Edge AI in “Impossible” Hunt for Higgs Decay
The Higgs boson gives particles mass, but its links to the lighter quarks are still largely untested. CMS has now hunted for Higgs decays to charm quarks in rare events produced with top-quark pairs, using advanced machine learning to… -
“It’s Its Own New Thing” – Scientists Discover New State of Quantum Matter
UC Irvine physicists have discovered a new phase of quantum matter with unusual electron-hole pairings. The material’s resilience to radiation hints at breakthroughs in quantum technologies and future space-ready computers…. Continue Reading

Single shot latched readout of a quantum dot qubit using barrier gate pulsing
Figure 1 shows the device layout and the operational scheme for latched readout of a QDHQ. Figure 1a is a false-color scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of an overlapping-gate device fabricated on a Si/SiGe heterostructure similar to that…

Localized statistics decoding for quantum low-density parity-check codes
The decoding problem
In this paper, we focus on the Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) subclass of QLDPC codes. These codes are defined by constant weight Pauli-X and –Z operators called checks that generate the stabilizer group defining the code space….

New insights into the docking mechanism of vanillin on three mammalian olfactory receptors via a new statistical physics model
Modeling results
A numerical computer program is employed to assess the performance of the finite multi-layer model (from L = 1 to L = 10) on the experimental concentration–response curves, i.e., the evaluation of the coherence between…

Emergent Wigner phases in moiré superlattice from deep learning
Deep learning architecture
Figure 1 summarizes the overall workflow. First of all, to explore the quantum phases of moiré materials, a neural network is employed to represent the many-body wavefunction. The neural network wavefunction Ψnet has…

Nonlocal complex short pulse equation in $${\mathcal{P}\mathcal{T}}$$ -symmetry like symmetry breaking, breather–grammian interactions and soliton solutions
The short pulse (SP) equation is well known equation used for describing the propagation of ultra-short optical pulses in quartz fibers by Schafer and Wayneo1,2. The SP equation is
$$\begin{aligned} \beta _{xt}=\beta +\frac{1}{6}\left( \beta…
