Even consciousness could reveal its secrets someday with this realistic simulation, researchers hope. It will not only provide an inner window on brain disorders, but may become sophisticated enough to mimic the human brain’s full complexity.

Scientists Confirm the Incredible Existence of ‘Second Sound’

Here’s visible proof for the first time ever.

In the world of average, everyday materials, heat tends to spread out from a localized source. Drop a burning coal into a pot of water, and that liquid will slowly rise in temperature before its heat eventually dissipates. But the world is full of rare, exotic materials that don’t exactly play by these thermal rules.

Scientists Used a Diamond to Create a New Phase of Matter

The researchers are confident that this process can be applied to other material beyond diamonds as well.

Since their theoretical discovery in 2012, time crystals have been front-and-center in conversations about how to improve quantum computers. While diamond, ice, and any other solid you can think of has a crystal lattice structure that repeats in space (another name for them could be “space crystals”), time crystals, as their name suggests, oscillate in perpetual cycles across time. These crystals, the thinking goes, could form stable forms of quantum memory and error-free quantum circuits, drastically improving a quantum computer’s performance.

Bitcoin notches new record high amid “Uptober” surge

Bitcoin surged over $125,500 for the first time on Saturday....

Uptober has arrived. Bitcoin reached an all-time high on Saturday, crossing $125,500 for the first time not even two months after hitting its previous record. The asset is up over 100% in the past year. Kyle Chassé, founder of MV Global, told Sherwood News that this all‑time high is being driven from the top down.
