- 1Quantum computer simulates matter popping into existence▼Quantum computer simulates matter “popping into existence”
Researchers have used a quantum computer to simulate particles of matter appearing out of the vacuum, reproducing a phenomenon predicted by quantum field theory in which energy can briefly convert into matter-antimatter pairs. The experiment offers a new way to study fundamental physics that is otherwise out of reach of traditional computers, and physicists say such simulations could help probe processes occurring in the early universe.
- 2Scientists Simulate Matter Emerging From Pure Energy On Quantum Computer●Scientists Simulated How Matter Can Emerge From Pure Energy On A Quantum Computer
Researchers have used a quantum computer to simulate how matter can emerge from pure energy, a process linked to pair production in which energetic particles such as photons convert into particle-antiparticle pairs. The demonstration shows how quantum hardware can model fundamental physics processes that are extremely difficult to capture with classical computers, offering a new tool for studying high-energy phenomena.
- 3Quantum simulator captures process that breaks quark strings▼Quantum simulator captures a strange process that can break quark strings
Researchers report that a quantum simulator has captured a strange process capable of breaking quark strings, the bonds that hold quarks together inside particles. The experiment offers a way to observe string-breaking, a phenomenon in quantum chromodynamics that is otherwise out of reach for classical computers and conventional particle accelerators. Physicists say such simulations could deepen understanding of how matter behaves under extreme conditions.
