Japanese physicists made calculations that suggest that energy can be teleported over long distances by the means of quantum teleportation. Quantum teleportation, despite its name, does not mean instantaneous transfer to a distance because it necessarily requires the classical (not superlight) communication channel. At the same time, the quantum state…
Differences between male and female brains such as, for example, logical thinking of men and increased intuition of women, are one of the favorite topics of debates and all kinds of jokes. It turned out that men and women behave differently even in dreams. Thanks to the recent extensive research,…
