Researchers have put a sapphire crystal containing quadrillions of atoms into a superposition of quantum states, bringing quantum effects into the macroscopic world
Matteo Fadel/ETH Zurich
Quantum effects have been demonstrated on one of the largest scales ever, pushing the boundaries of the quantum world. A crystal of 10^16 atoms has been placed inWhen a particle is in a quantum superposition of two states, it occupies both distinct states at the same time – the most famous example isWe corrected a typo in the number of atoms placed in a superposition

Michigan researchers find 1914 shipwrecks in Lake SuperiorMichigan researchers have found the wreckage of two ships that disappeared into Lake Superior in 1914 and hope the discovery will lead them to a third that sank at the same time, killing nearly 30 people aboard the trio of lumber-shipping vessels. The Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society announced the discoveries this month after confirming details with other researchers. Ric Mixter, a board member of the society and a maritime historian, called witnessing the discoveries “a career highlight.”

Michigan researchers find 1914 shipwrecks in Lake SuperiorMichigan researchers say they have found the wreckage of two ships that disappeared into Lake Superior in 1914 and hope the discovery will lead to a third vessel that sank at the same time. The Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society announced the discoveries this month. The steamship C.F. Curtis was towing the schooner barges Selden E. Marvin and Annie M. Peterson across Lake Superior when they sank on Nov. 18, 1914. All 28 people aboard were killed. The researchers found the wreck of the Curtis during the summer of 2021 and the Marvin a year later within a few miles of the first site.

AI Tool Can Detect Early Signs of Lung Cancer, Researchers SayA new AI tool named Sybil can spot early signs of the disease years before doctors would find it traditionally on a CT scan, say researchers at Boston’s Mass General Cancer Canter and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge. Sybil accurately predicted lung cancer within a year 86% to 94% of the time in one of their studies.
