[:es]Two teams of physicists have created the «Higgs mode» – a link between particle physics and the physics of matter. The work could help researchers understand the strange behavior of […]

[:es]The latest artificial intelligence systems start from zero knowledge of a game and grow to world-beating in a matter of hours. But researchers are struggling to apply these systems beyond […]

[:es]A new study challenges one of the most celebrated and controversial ideas in network science.[:]

[:es]Modelers find evidence that a combination of competition, predation and evolution will push ecosystems toward species diversity anywhere in the universe.[:]

[:es]The mathematician Gil Kalai believes that quantum computers can’t possibly work, even in principle.[:]

[:es]The quest for «quantum supremacy» – unambiguous proof that a quantum computer does something faster than an ordinary computer – has paradoxically led to a boom in quasi-quantum classical algorithms. […]

[:es]Quantum computers should soon be able to beat classical computers at certain basic tasks. But before they’re truly powerful, researchers have to overcome a number of fundamental roadblocks.[:]

[:es]A series of fossil finds suggests that life on Earth started earlier than anyone thought, calling into question a widely held theory of the solar system’s beginnings.[:]

[:es]Compact genomes and tiny cells gave flowering plants an edge over competing flora. This discovery hints at a broader evolutionary principle.[:]
