Recent progress on both analog and digital simulations of quantum fields foreshadows a future in which quantum computers ...

The notion that our universe might be a giant simulation has intrigued scientists and philosophers for decades. Recent ...

The reality we understand and interact with daily might, according to some scientists, be nothing more than an elaborate ...

A new study published in Scientific Reports simulates particle creation in an expanding universe using IBM quantum computers, demonstrating the digital quantum simulation of quantum field theory ...

The universe seems stable, but an unlikely shift in the Higgs field, a quantum field that pervades all of space, could trigger a bubble that passes through the universe, annihilating all matter.

The difference between traditional computers and quantum computers is narrowing in their ability to simulate the scrambling ...

The End of the Universe Could Begin with a Quantum Bubble A freak particle physics process could wipe out all galaxies and life—but it’s wildly unlikely ...

But assuming the universe is finite, the team argues that since the resources of potential simulators would have to be finite, “a volume containing a simulation will be finite and a lattice ...

This insight could help refine theories about how these transitions occurred in the early universe. Breakthroughs in Quantum Simulation ...

File this one under "fun to think about, probably not changing your day job": a new study just dropped that suggests gravity itself might be the smoking gun that our entire universe is one big ...

The universe seems stable, but an unlikely shift in the Higgs field, a quantum field that pervades all of space, could trigger a bubble that passes through the universe, annihilating all matter.
