Pore-forming proteins in living cells, termed ion channels, are embedded in the outer membrane of almost all cell types and ...

A quantum computer has used a single atom to model the complex dynamics of organic molecules interacting with light ...

Brookhaven National Laboratory and Stony Brook University (SBU) used artificial intelligence (AI) to help them understand how ...

We used what is called a trapped-ion quantum computer. This works by manipulating individual ... Our simulation, which used a laser and a single atom in the quantum computer, slowed these processes ...

When a molecule absorbs light, it undergoes a whirlwind of quantum-mechanical transformations. Electrons jump between energy ...

Zinc-air batteries just got a major upgrade: a dual-atom iron-cobalt catalyst delivers record energy density and 7,200 charge ...

Nearly 50 years after the invention of the patch-clamp technique revolutionised our understanding of electrical signalling in cells, scientists have achieved a major milestone: accurately simulating ...

Simulation of ion permeation using the novel method described in the publication. Credit by: Wojciech Kopec Nearly 50 years after the invention of the ...

A single trapped ytterbium ion can be used to simulate complex changes in the energy levels of organic molecules interacting ...

If we can harness the potential of quantum physics, modern computers may come to seem like plodding calculators in comparison with the machines of the future, says Chris Carter ...
