An Analog—Yes, Analog—Computer May Crack the Greatest Unsolved Mysteries in Physics

Because digital can’t do everything.
www.popularmechanics.com www.popularmechanics.com

According to Goldhaber-Gordon, these analog devices create a “hardware analogy” to solve problems in quantum physics. To test the simulator, researchers used a simple circuit coupled together with two quantum components. Tuning electrical voltages, scientists created a state of matter called “Z3 parafermions,” which is when electrons have only one-third of their usual charge—the first time such a state was created on an electronic device in a lab. The idea is to scale up this simulator to solve more complex questions in quantum computing.

Scientists Confirm the Incredible Existence of Time Reflections

Basically, if you look in a time mirror, you’ll see your back instead of your face.

Observation of temporal reflection and broadband frequency translation at photonic time interfaces - Nature Physics

Reflection cannot only occur at interfaces in space but also in time. Transmission-line metamaterials support time interfaces at which interference has been observed, forming a temporal version of a Fabry–Pérot cavity.

lmao of course this is what the DMT researcher looks like.

The usage of DMT to treat certain disorders is super exciting. Maybe one of the most interesting fields of medicine right now. One thing I've never seen are studies trying to characterize changes in brain function in normal or high performing people as a result of DMT dosing. For example, having a person of above average IQ perform a basic numerical/logical/spatial/verbal intelligence test like memorizing N numbers, solving logic puzzles, reading text, whatever before and after DMT dosing and under different conditions.

Lot of new stuff coming with battery tech that might make some of this all electric future we're trying to get to more feasible.

New invention: The oxygen-ion battery

An oxygen-ion-battery has been invented, based on ceramic materials. If it degrades, it can be regenerated, therefore it potentially has an extremely long lifespan. Also, it does not require any rare elements and it is incombustible. For large energy storage systems, this could be an optimal...

A notional cost / kwh, volume/kwh or mass/kwh not being present in this article is probably a bad sign.

For a cell with an electrolyte being much thinner than the electrodes, this results in volumetric energy densities of up to 140 mW h cm−3, which corresponds to gravimetric energy densities of up to 30 mW h g−1. For comparison, this is ≈30 % of the volumetric energy density of current lithium ion batteries at 450 mW h cm−3.

30% isn't bad, especially if it's not some bullshit comparison of theoretical densities vs some conservative figure they got for lion. A lot cost, high volume, high recharge count system could really improve the market for solar array roofs.
