In context: Binary systems composed of a supermassive black hole and a much smaller singularity orbiting around it are crucial for studying gravitational wave events. Detecting them, however, is ...

Researchers out of the University of Innsbruck have fabricated a quantum computer that leverages a complex quantum digit system as opposed to the traditional qubits. For those who may not know how a ...

The Bernoulli shift map is a well-known chaotic map in chaos theory. For a binary system, however, the output is not chaotic and converges to zero instead. One way to prevent this is by perturbing the ...

While quantum phenomena can be demonstrated using experiments such as the Double-Slit Experiment, certifying that a multi-qubit system is truly tapping into quantum mechanics is a challenge. It also ...

This unusual system 'shouldn't exist,' says one astronomer, who notes the orbit is as long as his daily commute. By Briley Lewis Published Aug 8, 2023 6:00 AM EDT Get the Popular Science daily ...

We may be looking for aliens in all the wrong places. Binary and multi-star systems, usually composed of two or more stars that either circle each other or a fixed point, may hold the key to finding ...

The discovery could lead to the finding of more planets. Astrophysicists are marveling at the latest celestial discovery made near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole. Scientists have uncovered ...
