Will light be the basis for quantum computing?

Using a compact optical platform that exploits the quantum characteristics of light, scientists are one step closer to realizing the first powerful photonic quantum computer. The researchers revealed to have generated a particular class of quantum states - d-level cluster states, robust and powerful than any other such states demonstrated thus far -, as well as to have used them to implement novel quantum operations. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/12/181203111603.htm

In death, Lonesome George reveals why giant tortoises live so long

Genetic analysis of DNA from Lonesome George and samples from other giant tortoises of the Galapagos -- which can live more than 100 years in captivity -- found they possessed a number of gene variants linked to DNA repair, immune response, and cancer suppression not possessed by shorter-lived vertebrates. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/12/181203115438.htm

Artificial intelligence for studying the ancient human populations of Patagonia

Researchers have used statistical techniques of automatic learning to analyze mobility patterns and technology of the hunter-gatherer groups that inhabited the Southern Cone of America, from the time they arrived about 12,000 years ago until the end of the 19th century. Big data from archaeological sites located in the extreme south of Patagonia have been used for this study. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/12/181203111610.htm

LIGO and Virgo announce four new gravitational-wave detections

The LIGO and Virgo collaborations have now confidently detected gravitational waves from a total of 10 stellar-mass binary black hole mergers and one merger of neutron stars, which are the dense, spherical remains of stellar explosions. Six of the black hole merger events had been reported before, while four are newly announced. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/12/181203111617.htm

Combination of space-based and ground-based telescopes reveals more than 100 exoplanets

Astronomers using a combination of ground and space based telescopes have reported more than 100 extrasolar planets (exoplanets) in only three months. These planets are quite diverse and expected to play a large role in developing the research field of exoplanets and life in the Universe. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/12/181203111612.htm
