The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to US scientist John Hopfield and British-Canadian researcher Geoffrey Hinton for their work in the field of machine learning, the Royal Swedish Academy of ...

Quantum physics has a reputation for needing exotic hardware, from liquid-helium-cooled qubits to sprawling AI clusters, just to crunch through basic simulations. Now a new “physics shortcut” is ...

Machine learning is becoming an essential part of a physicist’s toolkit. How should new students learn to use it? When Radha Mastandrea started her undergraduate physics program at MIT in 2015, she ...

Physics is using machine learning in quantum mechanics to learn about phase transitions. Machine learning is an exciting and growing field of computer science. Physics is using machine learning in the ...

John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton won the Nobel Prize in Physics for their foundational work in artificial intelligence. Hinton, known as the godfather of AI, is a dual citizen of Canada and Britain, ...

Today, solar energy provides 2% of U.S. power. However, by 2050, renewables are predicted to be the most used energy source (surpassing petroleum and other liquids, natural gas, and coal) and solar ...

The hunt for new physics is back on. The world’s most powerful machine for smashing high-energy particles together, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), has fired up after a shutdown of more than three ...

“God does not play dice with the universe,” Albert Einstein is reported to have said about the field of Quantum Physics. He was referring to the great divide at the time in the physics community ...
