The flow and movement of individual solid particles — be it grains of lunar dust or the powdered contents of a medication — holds tremendous research value for scientists in a variety of fields. Now, ...

‘Angel Particle’ found which could lead to 100 MILLION times faster computers SCIENTISTS have made a major breakthrough after discovering an ‘Angel particle’ which has been theorised about for 80 ...

Startup Particle Industries Inc. today debuted Tachyon, a single-board computer designed to power connected devices. Tachyon is positioned as an alternative to the popular Raspberry Pi line of ...

Researchers have used a quantum computer to uncover a mysterious particle called an anyon that appears to remember its past. Anyons were first theorised by physicists in the 1970s, with a particular ...

Particle accelerators could be incredibly useful for medicine – if they weren’t so huge. The SLAC accelerator, for example, is almost 2 mi (3.2 km) long, while CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) runs ...

Particle has launched Tachyon, its first Qualcomm Snapdragon-powered single-board computer (SBC) designed to make cutting-edge chipsets and AI tooling widely accessible to consumers and businesses.

A quantum computer that can simulate interactions between fundamental particles has been unveiled by physicists in Austria. Four trapped ions were used to model the physics that describes the creation ...
