The Big Bang is predicted to have produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter; however, the universe is dominated by matter and there is much less of its counterpart. The ALPHA (Antihydrogen Laser PHysics Apparatus) collaboration, based out of CERN, investigates the matter-antimatter asymmetry problem by creating and performing experiments on antihydrogen to compare it […]

Quantum information processing is a game changer for information technology: currently information is representable as strings of binary digits, or bits, and logical processing is performed according to the principles of boolean algebra. Quantum mechanics allows us to work with superpositions of states and perform quantum logic, which preserves the coherence vital for quantum information […]

In the Prairie Pothole Region of Canada, wetland consolidation and agrichemicals are potentially threatening aquatic life. The water boatmen are a family of aquatic insects with 42 species in Alberta that are monitored province-wide by the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute.
