Quantum mechanics is our most successful physical theory. Created to account for atomic phenomena, it has a vast range of applications extending well beyond the atomic realm, from predicting the abundances of the light elements created a few minutes after the Big Bang to understanding the properties of semiconductor materials that are the basis of advanced information technologies. Quantum mechanics …

In brief El Salvador’s Bitcoin Office said it had moved its crypto holdings to new addresses for security reasons. Blockchain data shows that the country is still adding more Bitcoin to its reserve, but the IMF says they aren’t new buys. The country, under a deal with the IMF, was supposed to scale back its Bitcoin ambitions. El Salvador’s government …

The US military’s Boeing-built X-37B spaceplane is in space again for its eighth mission. The X-37B is an uncrewed craft that, just like the USA’s retired Space Shuttle, launches on a rocket and after re-entry makes an unpowered landing on a terrestrial runway. The vehicle has engines it can use to maneuver in space, but in 2024 deliberately grazed Earth’s …

But in some ways, the proof was a bit unsatisfying. Jitomirskaya and Avila had used a method that only applied to certain irrational values of alpha. By combining it with an intermediate proof that came before it, they could say the problem was solved. But this combined proof wasn’t elegant. It was a patchwork quilt, each square stitched out of …
