Researchers from Saarland University (UdS) have achieved an important breakthrough in Quantum Communication by demonstrating Quantum Entanglement and Teleportation over a 14 km long fiber link, the “Saarbrücken Quantum Communication Fiber Testbed”.
Acoustic frequency filters, which convert electrical signals into miniaturized sound waves, separate the different frequency bands for mobile communications, Wi-Fi, and GPS in smartphones. Physicists at RPTU have now shown that such miniaturized sound waves can couple strongly with spin waves in yttrium iron garnet. This results in novel hybrid spin-sound waves in the gigahertz frequency range.
Researchers heard electric crackles on 28 hours of recordings made over two Martian years.

Neuroscientists at the University of Cambridge have identified five “major epochs” of brain structure over the course of a human life, as our brains rewire to support different ways of thinking while we grow, mature, and ultimately decline.
Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Tal Sharf’s lab used organoids to make fundamental discoveries about human brain development.
