Physicists have spent decades arguing over whether our universe is a fundamental reality or a kind of cosmic software, and ...

A new technique allows complex interactions in materials to be simulated using Monte Carlo simulations thousands of times ...

The demand for immersive, realistic graphics in mobile gaming and AR or VR is pushing the limits of mobile hardware. Achieving lifelike simulations of fluids, cloth, and other materials historically ...

A University of Portsmouth physicist has explored whether a new law of physics could support the much-debated theory that we are simply characters in an advanced virtual world. The simulated universe ...

One of the most influential science studies of all time started with a modest minicomputer, some simulated boxes of water molecules, and a grand vision for computer-aided chemistry. The year was 1982.

Quantum annealer D-Wave’s Advantage2 was one of the processors used to simulate quantum magnetic phase transitions. (Courtesy: D-Wave Systems) D-Wave Systems has used quantum annealing to do ...

Augmented Physics: This web-based tool uses machine learning to create interactive physics simulations from textbook diagrams. By semi-automatically extracting content, users can embed dynamic, ...

AI is the technology trend of the moment—but what’s 10 years down the road? Some experts say quantum computing will be the next game changer. WSJ visited IBM’s quantum computing lab to learn why.
