Light has been transformed into a 'supersolid' for the first time
Supersolids are strange materials that behave like both a solid and a fluid due to quantum effects – and now researchers have created an intrigui...
 An odd solid that can flow like a fluid has been created from light for the first time. Studying it will help researchers better understand exotic quantum states of matter. “We actually made light into a solid. That’s pretty awesome,” says Dimitris Trypogeorgos at the National Research Council (CNR) in Italy. He notes Daniele Sanvitto, also at CNR, showed how light could become a fluid more than a decade ago. Now Trypogeorgos, Sanvitto and their colleagues have used light to make not just any solid, but a quantum “supersolid”. originally posted at

 Cybersecurity experts have recently observed a concerning trend in attack methodologies, with threat actors increasingly leveraging fileless techniques that weaponize PowerShell and legitimate Microsoft applications to deploy malware while evading detection. These sophisticated attacks operate primarily in memory, leaving minimal forensic evidence and bypassing traditional security solutions that rely on file-based detection methods. originally posted at

Chinese on Zuchongzhi 3.0: Claims Million Times Speedup Over Google's Sycamore
The Quantum Insider
Chinese Team Officially Report on Zuchongzhi 3.0, Claims Million Times Speedup Over Google's Sycamore
Zuchongzhi 3.0 performed a task in seconds that would take the world's most powerful supercomputer billions of years to replicate.
 A Chinese research team has officially published findings that their quantum processor, Zuchongzhi 3.0, outperforms Google’s latest quantum computing efforts by a factor of one million. The study, released in Physical Review Letters and detailed previously on arXiv, reinforces China’s growing influence in the race for quantum computational advantage, a milestone where quantum computers outperform classical machines in specific tasks. originally posted at
