The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis for pioneering macroscopic quantum tunneling and energy quantization in superconducting circuits. Their work scales quantum effects to lab-visible sizes, advancing quantum computers, sensors, and cryptography. This bridges quantum and classical physics, promising revolutionary technologies.
A new study applies machine learning to the Ulam spiral, revealing hidden order in prime number distributions. AI models show higher predictability in upper regions (around 500 million) compared to lower ones (below 25 million), suggesting evolving regularity at larger scales. This approach could advance number theory, cryptography, and data science.
