New technique provides a means of interconnection between processors, opening the way to a complete quantum computing platform.

The Rapid Agent Aerosol Detector developed at Lincoln Laboratory has demonstrated excellent accuracy in identifying toxic biological particles suspended in the air.

Building quantum computers underground or designing radiation-proof qubits may be needed, researchers find.

Researchers devise an on-off system that allows high-fidelity operations and interconnection between processors.

Specialized nanoparticles create a “breath signal” that could be used to diagnose pneumonia and other infectious or genetic diseases.

The MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab is funding 10 research projects aimed at addressing the health and economic consequences of the pandemic.

Automated tools can help emergency managers make decisions, plan routes, and quantify road damage at city scales.

A system that enables smartphones to transmit “chirps” to nearby devices could notify people if they have been near an infected person.

Consortium includes industry, government, and academic institutions.

Weather’s a problem for autonomous cars. MIT’s new system shows promise by using “ground-penetrating radar” instead of cameras or lasers.
