A quantum programming language: Program what you don't know...
Quantum software has finally left the dark ages with the creation of the first practical, high-level programming language for quantum computers. Although today's devices are not ready for most practical applications, the language, called Quipper, could guide the design of these futuristic machines, as well as making them easier to program when they do arrive.

Uncertain, Possible, Certain... The path of Higgs...
Science Insider reports "Presented in Brussels, the updated plan builds on an original strategy formulated in 2006. Predictably, its first priority is full exploitation of the world's biggest atom smasher, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European particle physics laboratory, CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland. The LHC started taking data in 2010 and last year…

Pears, atoms, new forces...
An international team of physicists has found the first direct evidence of pear shaped nuclei in exotic atoms. The findings could advance the search for a new fundamental force in nature that could explain why the Big Bang created more matter than antimatter -- a pivotal imbalance in the history of everything. [1] Pfeeewwww! I for…

Relativity Theory and Light - The fake "limit"...
What is the Relativity Theory? What does it really say? The major misconceptions are related to the speed of light as a universal speed limit. A limit which... limits us in almost everything - from interspace journeys to information transmission and time travels (yes, Godel proved they are possible). But how is that limit derived?…

Physics constants. Not so... constant!
Physics knows many constants. But how... constant are they? Sheldrake did a research in physics books. He looked for the "constants" of nature. And was surprised to find that these "constants" changed during the years! Between 1928 and 1945 the constant of the speed of light dropped by 20 km/s. In 1948 it went up again.…
