A recent study published in Axioms delves into the double-step shape invariance of radial Jacobi-Reference (JRef) potential, revealing violations of conventional supersymmetric (SUSY) quantum mechanics rules. By dissecting the Darboux transformations, researchers elucidate the anomaly, shedding light on the breakdown of SUSY principles in specific quantum mechanical scenarios, offering insights into the broader landscape of quantum mechanics.

A group of researchers, from the University of California, Irvine Department of Physics and Astronomy used computer simulations to show that features observed in real galaxies are difficult to explain without dark matter, supporting the existence of dark matter as the leading model to describe the universe. The group published their findings in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
In a study published in the journal Nature Physics, a team of scientists led by researchers from the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) created the blueprint for a quantum computer that can fix errors more efficiently.
The Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering (ATSE) welcomes the announcement of a new, almost $1 billion quantum computing investment in Queensland, announced today by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Minister for Industry and Science Ed Husic along with Queensland’s Premier Steven Miles.
PsiQuantum today announced it will build the world’s first utility-scale quantum computer at a strategically located site near Brisbane Airport in Brisbane, Australia. The Australian Commonwealth and Queensland Governments will invest $940 M AUD ($620 M USD) into PsiQuantum through a financial package, comprised of equity, grants, and loans.
According to a study published in the journal Physical Review Research, researchers Kazuaki Takasan and Kyogo Kawaguchi of the University of Tokyo, along with Kyosuke Adachi of RIKEN, Japan’s largest comprehensive research institution, have demonstrated that increasing particle motility can induce ferromagnetism, an ordered state of atoms and that repulsive forces between atoms are sufficient to maintain it.

Radiation from space is a challenge for quantum computers as their computation time becomes limited by cosmic rays.
When you go on a trip, you might reach for a map to help navigate your journey or pull up GPS on your phone. But what if the destination is on another planet, and there is no map? A new project sponsored by the International Space Station (ISS) National Laboratory could provide an assist.
Researchers proposed a novel method for sensitive and rapid detection of influenza B virus (IBV) using silver-doped ZnIn2S4 quantum dot (Ag: ZIS QD)-based nanocomposite spheres. Leveraging the advantages of quantum dots (QDs) in fluorescence labeling and lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) technology, the researchers developed a fluorescence lateral flow biosensor that exhibited exceptional sensitivity and specificity in IBV protein detection.

Researchers at The University of Manchester have made a noteworthy advancement in the field of superconductivity by employing a recently developed one-dimensional (1D) system to successfully achieve robust superconductivity in high magnetic fields. The research was published in Nature.
This study introduces a pedagogical model, "quantum mechanics over sets" (QM/Sets), elucidating quantum mechanics (QM) concepts using the linearization of partitions mathematics over Z2. In this toy model, Z2 vectors represent sets, with arithmetic operations modulo 2 mimicking quantum phenomena intuitively.
