One intriguing method that could be used to form the qubits needed for quantum computers involves electrons hovering above ...

On Thursday, the U.S. government sold the Federal Helium Reserve, a massive underground stockpile based in Amarillo, Texas, that supplies up to 30% of the country’s helium. Once the deal is finalized, ...

Scientists can now reliably chill specimens near absolute zero for over 10 hours while taking images resolved to the level of individual atoms with an electron microscope. The new capability comes ...

Intel launched the swan song for its LGA 1700 platform on Thursday with the Core i9-14900KS. This "Special Edition" CPU is a binned version of the 14900K, plucked from obscurity due to its ability to ...

An international team has discovered how electrons can slither rapidly to-and-fro across a quantum surface when driven by external forces. The research has enabled the visualization of the motion of ...

UW graduate student Lauren Kim operates the ultra-high vacuum system housing a Scanning Tunneling Microscope for her research in condensed matter physics. The instrument operates at ultra-low ...

Renergen Limited (OTC:RGNNF), a South African energy company, announced the full operational status of its liquid helium production train on Thursday. The facility, which began operations on July 19, ...

A drop of liquid helium cooled to an extremely low temperature can be made to float in a vacuum for an indefinitely long time. In this state, it could serve as a powerful mini-laboratory for ...

Why is the availability of helium becoming a pressing concern for research labs, and what unique challenges does it pose? The high cost of helium is a big issue most researchers face, especially if ...

Scientists are tracing ancient helium trapped beneath South Africa’s gold fields, revealing how rare gas survives for ...

A new specimen holder gives scientists more control over ultracold temperatures, enabling the study of how materials acquire properties useful in quantum computers. (Nanowerk News) Scientists can now ...
