The three fundamental forces (and why gravity isn’t a force)
Gravity, Electromagnetism, the Strong Force (also called the Strong Nuclear force or the strong interaction) and the Weak force. A solid arsenal of fundamental forces that govern the interactions between stuff in the universe. But, if we are to assume that the most accurate theories that we have about these fundamental forces are true, than … Continue reading The three fundamental forces (and why gravity isn’t a force)
Teleportation sets new record, superposition and more..
You might have heard that Quantum Teleportation has set a new record! Such a teleportation has been achieved over a distance of 100 km optical fibre! The previous record was around 25 km. This technology could have serious implications in the future for the internet and reliability of data, as well as data security. So, … Continue reading Teleportation sets new record, superposition and more..
