The FLAMINGO super simulation maps the universe from its earliest moments but finds galaxies cluster less than cosmological ...

A research team at the Jülich Supercomputing Center, together with experts from NVIDIA, has set a new record in quantum simulation: for the first time, a universal quantum computer with 50 qubits has ...

The true nature of our universe as been an open debate for millennia, and recently, scientists and philosophers have pondered whether it might be a hyper-realistic simulation perpetuated by some super ...

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

The natural complexity of the universe should phase out the possibility of some advanced civilization controlling reality itself, researchers argue. Reading time 3 minutes How do we know we’re not ...

A computer simulation developed at MIT and commissioned by the Club of Rome in the early 1970s projected a possible collapse of civilization around 2040—if growth, resources and pollution trends ...

In this week's It’s Debatable article, Rick Rosen and Charles Moster debate whether we're all living in a computer simulation like the Matrix. Rosen retired as a professor from the Texas Tech ...

It’s not surprising anymore to encounter someone who works in tech and entertains “the simulation hypothesis,” which is the idea that we are probably living inside a virtual reality program. But I ...

Is this real life? Is this just fantasy? A growing number of scientists are suggesting that the idea that we are all living in a simulation may not be completely far-fetched. Simulation theory is the ...

A computer visualization maps small bodies in the solar system that are expected to be observed by the Rubin Observatory during the 10-year Legacy Survey of Space and Time. Red indicates near-Earth ...

File this one under "fun to think about, probably not changing your day job": a new study just dropped that suggests gravity itself might be the smoking gun that our entire universe is one big ...
