New evidence for quantum Darwinism found in quantum dots

Physicists have found new evidence that supports the theory of quantum Darwinism, the idea that the transition from the quantum to the classical world occurs due to a quantum form of natural selection.

It From Bit - Entropic Gravity For Pedestrians

We start with a seemingly trivial toy model. A model that strips entropic attraction to its barest essentials. You might feel this Mickey Mouse model can impossibly have any bearing on the problem of entropic gravity.

Gravity Emerges from Quantum Information

One of the hottest new ideas in physics is that gravity is an emergent phenomena; that it somehow arises from the complex interaction of simpler things.

Research concludes there is no 'simple theory of everything' inside the enigmatic E8

Garibaldi did the math to disprove the theory, which involves a mysterious structure known as E8. The resulting paper, co-authored by physicist Jacques Distler of the University of Texas, will appear in an upcoming issue of Communications in Mathematical Physics.

Triumph of the Cyborg Composer

David Cope's software creates beautiful, original music. Why are people so angry about that?

String theory officially useful, may not represent reality

What do some of the coldest gasses and hottest plasmas have in common? String theory may help model why they seem to behave as quantum liquids.

Obama is a Natural Born Citizen.

I'm surprised I have to write this article at all, but the idea that Obama is not a Natural US citizen keeps popping up in right wing media outlets. This argument relies on 3 points: 1. Obama's mother's age did not automatically confer citizenship.
