In a Numerical Coincidence, Some See Evidence for String Theory
In a Numerical Coincidence, Some See Evidence for String Theory
By NATALIE WOLCHOVER
In a quest to map out a quantum theory of gravity, researchers have used logical rules to calculate how much Einstein's theory must change. The result matches string theory perfectly.
For years, intermediate measurements made it hard to quantify the complexity of quantum algorithms. New work establishes that those measurements aren't necessary after all.
Researchers Defeat Randomness to Create Ideal Code
Podcast hosted by SUSAN VALOT; Story by MORDECHAI RORVIG
By constructing a multidimensional graph, researchers have finally created a method for coding a transmission that can immediately identify any corruption.
No Knowledge, No Problems Computer scientist Amit Sahai explains "zero-knowledge proofs" — a way to prove something without revealing any additional information — at five levels of difficulty for WIRED. Sahai has used this concept to hide the inner workings of computer programs from would-be hackers. In a 2014 article for Quanta, Erica Klarreich wrote about Sahai's pioneering work in "program obfuscation."
Intentional Icarus The Parker probe recently entered the sun's corona, giving us the closest-ever view of our star, Marina Koren writes for The Atlantic. Much about the sun remains a mystery despite its proximity to us. In 2019 Natalie Wolchover wrote for Quanta about scientists' attempts to understand the gamma rays emanating from our star.
