ATLAS (LHC) achieves highest-energy detection of quantum entanglement (atlas.cern)

“This is the first-ever observation of entanglement between a pair of quarks and the highest-energy measurement of entanglement. Apart from the fundamental interest of testing quantum entanglement in a new environment, this measurement paves the way to use the LHC as a laboratory to study quantum information and other...

A second big bang? The radical idea rewriting dark matter’s origins (www.newscientist.com)

By mulling over colliding bubbles on a cosmological scale, physicists are finding cause for speculation about fresh sparks of cosmic creation. It is possible, they say, that in the weeks after the big bang there was a second, similarly profound moment of transformation. This one may have spawned monstrous shadow particles...

Rings of RNA could be the next blockbuster drug (www.nature.com)

The commercial success of RNA vaccines for COVID-19 has revved up interest in circular RNAs as the next generation of therapies. This is because linear RNA molecules have a fleeting existence inside cells-which is not a problem for it’s function as vaccine, but for other therapeutic applications longer existence is preferable....
