RUSSIAN SCIENTISTS USED QUANTUM COMPUTERS TO TURN BACK TIME

 

QUANTUM COMPUTERS👇

A quantum computer used by scientists in Russia has been able to send a single electron back in time, enabling the computer to be reset from a moment earlier

Fall Back

In an experiment conducted on a quantum computer, Russian scientists appear to have reversed the flow of time.

There is little chance that the findings would lead to a human-powered time machine. IBM's public quantum computer was restored to its previous state by researchers published Wednesday in the journal Nature Scientific Reports — a nuanced result, but one that could have striking implications for computing, quantum physics, as well as our understanding of time.

QUANTUM COMPUTERS

“We have artificially created a state that evolves in a direction opposite to that of the thermodynamic arrow of time,” Gordey Lesovik, a quantum physicist from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology who led the research project, said in a university-published press release.

Great Scott

A team led by Lesovik ran thousands of experiments on a quantum system programed to reverse time in a single electron with the help of scientists at the Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois.

About 85 percent of the time, the quantum computer was able to obtain its original state after physicists worked with simplifed, two-qubit systems. The time reversal experiment only worked 49 percent of the time with a more complex quantum computer with three qubits.

Likewise, this study has nothing to do with a time-traveling machine, just as research into quantum teleportation is not related to transporting people. By kicking back through time, the scientists hope to be able to double check what quantum computer scientists are doing with their software..

Earth's shine seems to be fading due to global warming as the oceans heat up

  In recent years, the climate change crisis has escalated to unprecedented levels, resulting in unimaginable and life-changing consequences. An acclaimed new study contends that global warming is dimming our planet, literally! Global warming is causing the Earth's brightness to decrease, according to a new study. Now you're probably wondering, "how do you even measure something like that?" But researchers have their ways. Keeping track of the Earth's shine requires them to calculate the Earth's 'albedo', or reflectance. The albedo is calculated utilizing something called the 'earthshine'. The crescent moon is most noticeable immediately after sunset or before sunrise, when its dazzling crescent gives way to a dark disc with a faint glow. A crescent moon's unlit parts are known as earthshine because they are glowing from the light reflected from the Earth. The study revealed that earthshine data over the last three years indicates that our ...

Mechanical and optical mouse

  How does the Mechanical Mouse work? A mechanical mouse consists of a heavy rubber ball whose movement makes the cursor move on the screen. Commonly known as the ‘rolling rubber ball’ mouse, it is considerably heavy, thanks to the rubber ball, a few wheels, and a number of other mechanical parts present inside it. When you move the mouse, the ball rolls beneath it, pushing the two plastic wheels/rollers linked to it in the process. One of those wheels detects side-to-side movement (x-axis wheel) and the other (y-axis wheel) detects movement in the up-and-down direction. Both of these wheels consist of spokes that ‘break’ a thin light beam inside the mouse. The number of times the beam breaks helps to calculate how far the mouse has moved. For instance, when you move the mouse straight up, the y-axis wheel turns. The farther up you go, the more the ball pushes the wheel and the more it breaks the light beam. This helps to determine how far the mouse has moved straight up....

How do Ants sense Food?

  S ugar has a slight odor, particularly granulated beet sugar. While all species of ants can differentiate between a wide variety of odors, the smelling range differs from a few centimeters to meters. Desert ants can smell sugar from up to 3 meters. the food sources that ants cannot smell from a distance they 'smell' it (contact chemoreception) by touching it. So in a way, all the food they detect, they detect it by smelling. So yes, ants smell (although contact chemoreception is more like taste) the sugar. The ant colonies send scout ants to search for food in various directions, often up to a range of 100 to 200 meters.(Depends on the territorial boundary and time of the year). The scout marches steadily in less circuitous paths initially if it has memories of previous feeder locations. (Ants use visual landmarks, and a stereo-smell system to create an odor map and navigate) Periodically it will halt and look for olfactory cues. It will then take into a more circuitous rando...
