| The U.S. National Science Foundation has launched six pilot projects to bridge scientific gaps between current quantum technological capabilities and those needed to fully harness quantum properties of energy and matter for practical uses. The six projects join five others that the agency announced in August. Collectively, they are supported by the NSF National Quantum Virtual Laboratory initiative, an ambitious effort to accelerate the development of quantum technologies by providing researchers anywhere in the U.S. with access to specialized resources. "Similar to the nature of entanglement itself, NSF is building the National Quantum Virtual Laboratory to serve as a national resource unconfined by the limitations of distance and space — or the boundaries of laboratory walls," said NSF Director Sethuraman Panchanathan. | | NSF grants $17M to provide cutting-edge X-ray tools for molecular science and engineering research at NSF ChemMatCARS The funding will expand program offerings, effectively doubling the beam time available to chemistry, materials science, biology and engineering researchers. Research performed at NSF ChemMatCARS has a wide range of applications in various fields, including developing nanomaterials, new energy sources and environmental remediation strategies. | | Did someone forward this message to you?
