A device smaller than a grain of dust is emerging as a surprisingly powerful candidate to reshape how quantum computers are ...

A device smaller than a grain of dust may help unlock the kind of quantum computers people have only dreamed about. Built on ...

A research team led by the University of Arizona has reconstructed in unprecedented detail the history of a dust grain that formed during the birth of the solar system more than 4.5 billion years ago.

Scientists have performed a micro-probe analysis of the core and outer layers of a pea-sized piece of a meteorite some 4.57 billion years old to reconstruct the history of its formation, providing the ...

Scientists have found an “alien” grain of dust that survived the birth of our solar system. It’s believed the tiny speck of material, found inside a meteorite in Antarctica, was created by a distant ...

A research team led by the University of Arizona has reconstructed in unprecedented detail the history of a dust grain that formed during the birth of the solar system more than 4.5 billion years ago.

Combining atomic-scale sample analysis and models simulating likely conditions in the nascent solar system, the study revealed clues about the origin of crystals that formed more than 4.5 billion ...
