• Researchers Discover New Nanoparticles with Exclusively Lateral Light Scattering

  …Studies on light scattering in all-dielectric photonics often refer to the so-called Kerker effect which occurs when an object scatters light only in forward direction. In contrast, the scattering of light in the backward direction is called the anti-Kerker effect. Utilizing these phenomena, scientists can achieve unusual ways of light control at the nanoscale. An…

• Quantum Computing: Challenges, Prospects, and Current Developments

  …ow quantum mechanics actually work, we could describe them as a wave function, a massive vector affected by an evolution operator. In this case, it is an exponential of a Hamiltonian matrix (in quantum theory, a hamiltonian (H) is an operator of all energies of a system). If we multiply these matrices by a classic vector, we would requi…
