Development of theories of Theoretical Physics through the 17th, 18th and 19th century.

The sole interpretations of QM.

What Happens When You Mix Thermodynamics and the Quantum World? A Revolution Physicists are applying 19th century laws of thermodynamics to the quantum realm.

Lithium-Ion Battery Inventor Introduces New Technology for Fast-Charging, Noncombustible Batteries John Goodenough and his team have developed the first all-solid-state battery cells that could lead to safer, faster-charging, longer-lasting rechargeable batteries.  

Nicely explained.

Physicists propose first method to control a single quanta of energy (Phys.org)—Physicists have proposed what they believe to be the first method to control the transport of energy at the level of single energy quanta (which are mostly phonons). They show that it's theoretically possible to control the flow of single energy quanta through a quantum magnet using laser...

Experiments point toward memory chips 1,000 times faster than today's Silicon memory chips come in two broad types: volatile memory, such as computer RAM that loses data when the power is turned off, and nonvolatile flash technologies that store information even after we shut off our smartphones.

Quantum fingerprinting surpasses classical limit (Phys.org)—As the saying goes, no two fingerprints are alike, and the same is true for quantum fingerprints. Just as a human fingerprint is only a fraction of the size of a person, yet can be used to distinguish between any two people (at least in theory), quantum fingerprints are exponentially smal...

NASA engages warp drive Can we bend space-time and travel at many times the speed of light?

Reality doesn’t exist until we measure it, quantum experiment confirms Australian scientists have recreated a famous experiment and confirmed quantum physics's bizarre predictions about the nature of reality, by proving that reality doesn't actually exist until we measure it - at least, not on the very small scale....

How cosmic rays help us understand the universe - Veronica Bindi We only know 4% of what the universe is made up of. Can we also know what lies beyond our galaxy ... and if there are undiscovered forms of matter? Luckily, we have space messengers — cosmic rays — that bring us physical data from parts of the cosmos beyond our reach. Veronica Bindi explains what co…
