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...
A Yale-led research group has created the most detailed maps yet of a vast seedbed of stars similar to Earth’s Sun.
The maps provide unprecedented detail of the structure of the Orion A molecular cloud, the closest star-forming region of high-mass stars....
Researchers at Yale and Donghua University in China have developed a new process for creating lithium metal that may boost the energy and capacity of rechargeable batteries.
Lithium metal is considered the best option as a material for anodes in high-...
In a world of changing climate and shifting habitat, species of all sorts are on the move — and so is Yale’s biodiversity research.
On May 2, Yale launched the Max Planck–Yale Center for Biodiversity Movement and Global Change with a daylong symposium....
Researchers have pieced together the three-dimensional skull of an iconic, toothed bird that represents a pivotal moment in the transition from dinosaurs to modern-day birds.
Ichthyornis dispar holds a key position in the evolutionary trail that leads...
Yale physicists have uncovered hints of a time crystal — a form of matter that “ticks” when exposed to an electromagnetic pulse — in the last place they expected: a crystal you might find in a child’s toy.
The discovery means there are now new puzzles to...
In the world of chemistry, good things can happen if you just add sugar.
A wide range of drugs and biochemical probes — everything from antibiotics to Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers — rely on natural or synthetic compounds that aid a reaction by adding...
