UCF Finds Third Type of Magnetism for Future Computers
Physicists confirmed altermagnetism in a layered cobalt material, a discovery that could let future chips use electron spin instead of charge.

Giant Atoms Set 3 Records for Quantum Computers
University of Stuttgart physicists trapped supersized Rydberg atoms at room temperature, breaking three world records without costly cooling.

Kyoto Physicists Crack 25-Year Quantum Puzzle
Researchers in Japan have found a way to measure a second major type of quantum entanglement for the first time, closing a 25-year gap and opening a new path toward practical quantum teleportation.

2-Millisecond Chip Captures Sound's Quantum Jump
Stanford physicists tracked a single phonon vanish between energy states in real time, using a resonator that rings for 2 milliseconds — a scientific first.
IBM's 70-Qubit Computer Solved What Supercomputers Can't
IBM and University of Chicago researchers completed a quantum calculation that top classical computers can't practically match, using 70 error-corrected qubits.
Scientists Spot a Glueball: The Particle Made of Pure Force
Researchers at Beijing's BESIII confirm strong evidence for the glueball — a particle made entirely of gluons, fulfilling a 50-year prediction of quantum physics.

Superconductor Breakthrough: Nanoscale Trick Could Slash Electronics Energy Use
Researchers at Chalmers used nanoscale ridges in the substrate to dramatically boost superconductivity in ultrathin films, opening a path to far more efficient electronics.

Scientists Find 'On-Off Switch' for Superconductivity in Twisted Graphene
An Ohio State team can flip superconductivity on and off in twisted bilayer graphene by tuning its surroundings — a step toward the long-sought goal of room-temperature electronics with zero energy loss.
New Camera Captures Events Unfolding in Trillionths of a Second
Chinese researchers unveiled an imaging method that captures both brightness and structural change in a single shot at femtosecond speeds — opening a new window on ultrafast science.
Astronomers Find the Universe's Most Pristine Star
A star with less than 0.005% of the Sun's metals has been discovered drifting into the Milky Way — offering a rare window into the universe's earliest era.

Webb Telescope Discovers a Bizarre 'Sulfur World' — A Brand-New Type of Exoplanet
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have identified an entirely new class of exoplanet: a sulfur-drenched world with a molten interior, just 35 light-years from Earth.

This 12-Year-Old Just Built a Nuclear Fusion Reactor in Texas — and May Break a World Record
Aiden MacMillan, a 12-year-old from Dallas, has achieved nuclear fusion with a homemade reactor — potentially making him the youngest person ever to accomplish the feat.
Scientists Achieve First Long-Distance Quantum Internet Connection Between Cities
Physicists have transmitted quantum-encrypted data between two cities 50 kilometers apart, marking a major milestone toward an unhackable internet.
