Researchers achieved the first real-world demonstration of quantum entanglement over a busy telecommunications fiber network. A single photon carrying quantum information had to travel more than 24 kilometers through an optical fiber already crowded with powerful internet signals. Despite the noise, it reached downtown Chicago still entangled with its partner at Northwestern University’s Evanston campus. […]
CERN Experiments Detect Signs of the Universe’s Primordial Matter
All four major LHC experiments have found new evidence that collisions between oxygen and neon may produce the extreme state of matter that existed during the first microseconds after the Big Bang. Inside the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), collisions between relatively light oxygen and neon nuclei may be producing matter from the earliest moments of […]
Ancient Immune Protein Could Hold the Key to Better Cancer Immunotherapy
A protein known for circulating in the blood to fight infection plays a very different role when produced by cells inside tumors. A protein that emerged long before animals developed circulatory systems may influence whether cancer immunotherapy succeeds. Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan found that complement C3 helps keep immunosuppressive cells out of tumors, […]

Study Finds a Surprising Link Between Gut Microbes and Aging
Certain gut bacteria were linked to slower or faster biological aging. The communities of bacteria living in the gut may carry clues about how rapidly the body is aging. Researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa found that certain microbial patterns were associated with faster or slower biological aging, adding to evidence that gut […]
AI Helps Crack an 87-Year-Old Math Conjecture With One Tiny Formula
An AI-assisted counterexample disproves the Jacobian conjecture above two dimensions while leaving its original two-dimensional form open. A formula short enough to fit inside a single post on X has sent a surge of excitement through the mathematical community, just as millions of people were settling down after the FIFA World Cup Final. Levent Alpöge, […]
