Princeton Scientist Makes A Leap In Quantum ComputingPrinceton NJ (SPX) Feb 12, 2010 A major hurdle in the ambitious quest to design and construct a radically new kind of quantum computer has been finding a way to manipulate the single electrons that very likely will constitute the new machines' processing components or "qubits." Princeton University's Jason Petta has discovered how to do just that - demonstrating a method that alters the properties of a lone electron without disturbing the trillions of electrons in its immediate surroundings.

Nuclear test islands might be resettledLivermore, Calif. (UPI) Feb 11, 2009 U.S. scientists say soil cleanup methods might be effective in allowing residents to resettle on some islands where 1950 nuclear tests were held. Researchers Bill Robison and Terry Hamilton of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory calculated the radiation doses for people possibly returning to Bikini, Enjebi and Rongelap Islands and found some could have lower radioactive levels than the average background dose for residents in the United States and Europe. Robison and Hamilton dete ... read more |
