Microsoft's latest quantum chip is 1,000 times more reliable than its predecessor — but why is this new processor so controversial?
The Majorana 2 quantum processor is built from topological qubits, and its creators claim it can sustain quantum coherence for an average of 20 seconds — orders of magnitude longer than the milliseconds that conventiona…
'Out-of-place' rocks reveal how a young ocean formed
Deep below the Tyrrhenian Sea offshore Italy, scientists drilled into what they thought would be dark mantle rock—and found pieces of granite that seemingly had no business being there. Those unexpected intrusions turne…
