Use of Quantum Interferometry at Megalithic Sites: Turning to Quantum Physics

Go visit a sacred ancient site, if possible one featuring a high density of megalithic architecture, and when you get back tell me, hand on heart, you didn’t feel something. Modern archaeology, for all the good that it has done, does not seem to respect this point. (Please see the article under the same name on my Substack for an extended ontological explanation as to why.)

Something is ambiguous, absurd, certainly strange (see: Kastrup, 2012).

Let’s talk about strangeness. Your first thought may be the “paranormal”. Those into the phenomena may think of “high strangeness”. Historians may recount a primary source or two that sticks out from the literature. Classicists may see myth. Some of you may even recollect a personal experience. Maybe one you heard from a family member or that omnipresent friend of a friend of a friend.

Chuck Brooks Cybersecurity is national security. In my latest Leadership & Success Podcast with Coach BZ Podcast (S4:E44), I sat down with Chuck Brooks — Thinkers360 Cybersecurity Ambassador, Georgetown University faculty, and one of LinkedIn’s Top 5 Tech People to Follow. We explored his remarkable journey from Presidential appointee to global cyber thought leader, highlighting the leadership principles that fueled his success.

Chuck shared powerful insights on the rise of ransomware, the looming threat of quantum computing, and how AI and agentic systems are transforming the cyber battlefield. He emphasized humility, continuous learning, and servant leadership — values equally vital in military command posts and Silicon Valley boardrooms. His call to action for leaders?

First Quantum Bit Made of Antimatter Captured in Physics Breakthrough

CERN scientists have analyzed a particle of antimatter isolated in an undecided quantum state known as a superposition for the first time.

While the quantum behavior of ordinary matter has been studied extensively and even used as the basis of quantum computers in the form of qubits, the breakthrough goes far beyond technological applications, potentially helping physicists understand why we even exist today.

The team suspended an antiproton – the antimatter counterpart of the proton – in a system of electromagnetic traps, and suppressed environmental interference that would mess with the particle’s delicate quantum state.

Magnetizing the Future of Quantum Communication: Single-Photon Emission from Defective Tungsten Diselenide

Quantum communication is one of the most exciting frontiers in secure data transmission. Now, a groundbreaking discovery by researchers at Kyoto University offers a major leap forward: a single-photon source created using defective tungsten diselenide (WSe2), enhanced under the influence of a magnetic field. The result? A powerful and controllable emitter that could revolutionize quantum information technologies.

First-Ever Images Capture Atoms “Wiggling” in Quantum Materials

Scientists have imaged atomic thermal vibrations for the first time, revealing hidden patterns that could redefine quantum and nano-electronic device design. Scientists studying atomic-level behavior in advanced electronic and quantum devices have successfully captured the first-ever microscopy i

Northeastern discovery in quantum materials could make electronics 1,000 times faster

Researchers at Northeastern University have discovered how to change the electronic state of matter on demand, a breakthrough that could make electronics 1,000 times faster and more efficient.

By switching from insulating to conducting and vice versa, the discovery creates the potential to replace silicon components in electronics with exponentially smaller and faster quantum materials.

“Processors work in gigahertz right now,” said Alberto de la Torre, assistant professor of physics and lead author of the research. “The speed of change that this would enable would allow you to go to terahertz.”

Northeastern researchers discovered how to control quantum materials with light, potentially making electronics 1,000 times faster.

Earth’s Gravity Might Be Warping Quantum Mechanics, Say Physicists

Scientists propose a groundbreaking experiment using quantum computers and atomic clocks to test whether gravity alters the fundamental rules of quantum theory. A recent study featured in the journal PRX Quantum reveals how a network of quantum computers equipped with optical clocks can be used t

Quantum computing occurs naturally in the human brain, study finds

Kurian’s group believes these large tryptophan networks may have evolved to take advantage of their quantum properties. When cells breathe using oxygen—a process called aerobic respiration—they create free radicals, or reactive oxygen species (ROS). These unstable particles can emit high-energy UV photons, which damage DNA and other important molecules.

Tryptophan networks act as natural shields. They absorb this harmful light and re-emit it at lower energies, reducing damage. But thanks to superradiance, they may also perform this protective function much more quickly and efficiently than single molecules could.
