How fast is quantum entanglement? Scientists investigate it at the attosecond scale

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics

Quantum theory describes events that take place on extremely short time scales. In the past, such events were regarded as ‘momentary’ or ‘instantaneous’: An electron orbits the nucleus of an atom—in the next moment it is suddenly ripped out by a flash of light. Two particles collide—in the next moment they are suddenly ‘quantum entangled.’

Researchers succeed in taking 3D X-ray images of a skyrmion

Posted by in categories: computing, nanotechnology

A difficult-to-describe nanoscale object called the magnetic skyrmion might one day yield new microelectronic devices that can do much more—for example, massive data storage—all while consuming much less power.

Femtosecond fieldoscopy accesses molecule fingerprints at near-infrared spectral range

Posted by in category: futurism

In an advance that could revolutionize biomarker detection, researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light have developed a novel technique called femtosecond fieldoscopy. This method enables the precise measurement of minute liquid quantities, down to the micromolar level, with unmatched sensitivity in the near-infrared region.

GenAI surges in law firms: Will it spell the end of the billable hour?

Posted by in category: law

“There’s way more piloting that I’ve seen, especially in large law firms. So, there’s been a lot of expense, especially the allocating of staff and paying out of pocket for licensing fees,” Friedmann said.

“Part is keeping up with the Joneses, part of it is marketing, and part of it is just getting over the adoption challenges,” he continued. “In eDiscovery, before the advent of genAI, you needed some training to know how to interact with discovery database. There were a lot of tools, but they all had the same issue: You had to be pretty technically adept to tackle the database yourself.”
