The International Festival of Arts & Ideas knew exactly where to go for an in-depth look at the entanglement of art and quantum physics: the Yale Quantum Institute (YQI).
On June 12, as part of this year’s festival, YQI hosted “I’ll Be Your Qubit,” a...
Yale’s next wave of quantum computing research will get a boost from a $16 million grant from the U.S. Army Research Office.
The four-year grant will help fund the work of dozens of faculty members, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers...
To fully understand biodiversity and how it is changing, you need to look near, far, and in-between, according to a new study.

Nekton refers to marine animals...
A new study says El Niño events may have recently diminished due to a chain of climate trends starting with the accelerated warming of subtropical waters in the North Atlantic and continuing with stronger southerly winds in the tropical Pacific. A likely...
Yale researchers have provided a new explanation for why Earth’s early climate was more stable and warmer than it is today.
When life first evolved more than 3.5 billion years ago, Earth’s surface environment looked very different. The sun was much weaker...
An international, Yale-led research team has taken a new approach to stabilizing high-power lasers: They’re fighting chaos with chaos.
There has been a rapidly growing demand for high-power lasers for applications such as materials processing, large-scale...
