Neutron stars are some of the densest objects in the universe. They are the core of a collapsed megastar that went supernova, have a typical radius of 10 km—just slightly more than the altitude of Mt.

Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

REDMOND, Wash. – Anyone who has sat through a third-grade science class knows there are three primary states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. Microsoft now says it has created a new state of matter ...

Scientists have discovered a new way that matter can exist—one that is different from the usual states of solid, liquid, gas or plasma—at the interface of two exotic materials made into a sandwich.

Microsoft’s Majorana 1 chip contains eight topological qubits. John Brecher for Microsoft While traditional computing currently relies on bits, quantum computing utilizes qubits—a unit of information ...
