Picking winners: the 10 most popular physics stories of 2024
- The top 10 most read stories published on the Physics World website in 2024 are dominated by articles on quantum physics.
- These include topics such as a quantum thought experiment depicting the quantum world's relative reality and scientists exploiting quantum correlations to encode hidden images into light.
- The article also highlights research on a theoretical framework unifying quantum mechanics and classical gravity without quantum gravity and the potentiality of maximally entangled mixed states.
- Interestingly, there was also a story about a superconductor that held the current density 10 times higher than previously reported, but it was later retracted due to an error.
- Other stories touched on an exoplanet with an atmosphere, a vortex cannon that emits electromagnetic pulses, and the lack of citations of foundational scientific research.
- The most popular article was on the magic of quantum computation and how certain error-correcting codes can improve the quality of magic states in quantum computing systems.
- The international year of Quantum Science and Technology in 2025 is expected to feature many more of these quantum physics stories.
