What We're Reading

A nearly 1,000-page proof shows that slowly rotating black holes are stable.

The honor, like a Nobel Prize for mathematics, was given this year to Luis Caffarelli for his work on partial differential equations.

Quantum bursts of light could help examine minute chemical reactions and reveal the quantum properties of mysterious materials.

A research team that included Dries Sels of the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Quantum Physics performed the first experimental observation of the onset of quantum avalanches in a many-body localized system.

A new experiment pulled off the most precise measurement of an electron’s self-generated magnetic field—and the universe’s subatomic model is at stake.

Researchers hope this new wiring map of the fruit fly can offer clues to how all brains learn, for example, and remember, and control an animal's behavior.

Flatiron Institute astrophysicist Shirley Ho weighs in on new research showing that, contrary to conventional wisdom, retraining earlier levels of the algorithm often achieves better results than retraining later ones.

In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise measurement of any property of an elementary particle, ever.

Researchers demonstrate for the first time that using more qubits can lower error rate of quantum calculations.

The way we teach quantum theory conveys a spookiness that isn’t actually there, argues Chris Ferrie of the Center for Quantum Software and Information at the University of Technology Sydney.
