It looks like fireflies flickering in the darkness. Slowly, more and more amass, lighting up the screen in large chunks and clusters. But this is not a video about insects. It’s a simulation of the ...

Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and ...

Much remains a mystery about the first billion years of the universe’s history, the epoch in which the cosmos emerged from its dark ages with the dawning of the earliest stars and galaxies. Now ...

The Anderson transition is a phase transition that occurs in disordered systems, which entails a shift from a diffusive state (i.e., in which waves or particles are spread out) to a localized state, ...

The infant universe transforms from a featureless landscape to an intricate web in a new supercomputer simulation of the cosmos’s formative years. An animation from the simulation shows our universe ...

The demand for immersive, realistic graphics in mobile gaming and AR or VR is pushing the limits of mobile hardware. Achieving lifelike simulations of fluids, cloth, and other materials historically ...

New high-resolution simulations show one million galaxies forming some 13 billion years ago. It looks like fireflies flickering in the darkness. Slowly, more and more amass, lighting up the screen in ...
