In the fast-paced world of technology, few concepts have proven to be as influential as Moore’s Law. This observation was originally made by Gordon Moore in 1965, co-founder of Intel, which has guided the exponential growth and progress the digital world has made for...
Have you ever wondered what everything in our Universe is made of? The answer may surprise you. Dark matter, a mysterious and elusive substance, makes up about 27% of the universe, while the matter we can see and interact with makes up only 5%. But what exactly is...
On the fifth of December 2022, a group of researchers at the National Ignitions Facility (NIF) in the USA, conducted an experiment which released 3.15 MJ of energy while only using 2.05 MJ of energy [3]. During this experiment, heavy hydrogen atoms were fused into a...
Since the beginning of civilization, humans have looked up into the sky and wondered whether we are alone in the Universe. Since then our technology has come quite a way and it feels like we can make a better-educated guess to this question. We currently estimate that...
In 1915 Einstein wrote the leading description of gravitation in modern physics, also known as the general theory of relativity. This theory describes the universe so well that it never fails, except for the Big Bang and at centres of black holes, both are...
Quantum Internet - it sounds like a typically made-up scientific term used in some movies, which ignores all laws of nature in the process to further the plot. In the case of quantum internet however, this idea seems far from fiction. Scientists are already working on...
To understand the universe around us we have come up with and proven many different laws of physics, with one of the most fundamental being the different conservation laws. From these conservation laws, it follows that whenever matter is created an equal amount of...
In quantum mechanics, physicists have come up with all kinds of thought experiments. Quantum suicide and quantum immortalilty are examples of these thought experiments. They are a variation on the most famous problem in quantum mechanics, Schrödinger’s cat. This...
