Universe may have resulted out of a ‘Big Bounce’, says Italian physicist Carlo Rovelli

Carlo Rovelli is an Italian theoretical physicist who has written several popular-science books. In his latest work, White Holes: Inside the Horizon, Rovelli explains the theoretical existence of white holes – the converse of black holes. The latter is believed to be the ultimate graveyard of all matter from which…

How quantum algorithms solve problems that classical computers can’t

Quantum computers solve difficult problems efficiently using quantum gates and quantum algorithms. Shor's algorithm is an example of a quantum algorithm that is more efficient than classical algorithms for factorisation. Grover's algorithm is another quantum algorithm that is more efficient for searching large lists. The Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm is an example…

New ‘quantum engine’ does work by flipping the identity of atoms

Physicists have created a ‘quantum engine’ to convert the energy difference between two quantum states - fermionic and bosonic - of some atoms into work. The device adapts the principles of a classical engine to subatomic realm, allowing physicists to study quantum thermodynamics with better control and to potentially better…
