Review & Outlook: Donald Trump seems to have bought Bill Pulte’s high-risk brainstorm that would benefit those in the home-building and mortgage-banking industries but squeeze borrowers at taxpayer ...

Ford has been unable to fill some 5,000 openings for mechanics despite offering a salary of $120,000 a year — prompting the company’s chief executive to warn of a dire shortage of skilled tradespeople ...

A century ago, the strange behavior of atoms and elementary particles led physicists to formulate a new theory of nature. That theory, quantum mechanics, found immediate success, proving its worth ...

Atomic clocks will only see a loss of 1 second in accuracy over a period of 10 million years. They are used in multiple ways, including the GPS in your car. Now researchers have found a way to bypass ...

Quantum computers based on ions or atoms have one major advantage: The qubits themselves aren’t manufactured, and there’s no device-to-device variability among atoms. Every atom is the same and should ...

Lectures on Tap series brings professors and other experts into Boston restaurants and bars for talks that mix big ideas with food and drink. Lectures on Tap, an event series, brings ticketed lectures ...

Quantum computers can outperform even the best classical supercomputers thanks to quantum entanglement and superposition, but even they can’t solve some problems. A new preprint study shows how ...

The Tanner Lectures on Human Values are presented annually at a select list of universities around the world. The University Center serves as host to these lectures at Princeton, in which an eminent ...

Google researchers have made a fresh claim of quantum advantage — the ability of quantum computers to radically speed up calculations compared with their classical counterparts. This is not the ...

Quantum computers are still in their infancy. Presently limited to 100 or so error-prone qubits, the quantum equivalents to classical bits, they are far from supreme calculating machines that are ...
