A University of Bristol physicist provides the first-ever practical blueprint for creating in the lab a wormhole that verifiably bridges space, as a probe into the inner workings of the universe. It involves creating a new kind of quantum computer, investigation of quantuum physics in a new way and a possible path to some kind …
University of Chicago, Nevada and Beijing University researchers have made a superconductor with a fairly high transition temperature (30 degrees kelvin) by putting one element Scandium under high pressure. Superconductivity above 30 K achieved in dense scandium. Superconductivity is one of most intriguing quantum phenomena, and the quest for elemental superconductors with high critical temperature …

Lifespan.io reports that researchers have reduced memory and learning symptoms in mice. Alzheimer’s research needs new approaches. A paper describes a promising molecule built using a technique that can be expanded to numerous other proteins with post-translational modifications. The researchers were also able to deliver the rather large molecule intranasally across the blood-brain barrier, alleviating …
