Atos supercomputer to help unlock secrets of the Universe Paris (France), London, (UK) 1 June 2021 – Atos today announces it has been awarded a contract by the University of Edinburgh to deliver its most efficient supercomputer, the BullSequana XH2000, the most energy-efficient supercomputing system on the market. This is the largest system dedicated to GPU computing deployed at a customer site in the UK. The new system will constitute the Extreme Scaling Service of the UK’s DiRAC HPC Facility. The state-of-the-art platform will allow scientists across the STFC theory community t...

Thanks! It is indeed supremely difficult to effectively refute the claim that John von Neumann is likely the most intelligent person who has ever lived. By the time of his death in 1957 at the modest age of 53, the Hungarian polymath had not only revolutionized several subfields of mathematics and physics but also...

The Low-Mass Dark Matter Frontier December 11, 2020• Physics 13, 172 Traditional searches for dark matter rely on giant detectors that look for particles heavier than a proton, but sights are turning to smaller experiments with sensitivity to lighter-mass particles. ARTICLE TAKEAWAYS There is a crucial need to explore dark matter candidates across a much wider mass range than that of the WIMP. New detection schemes will allow researchers to search for so-called sub-GeV dark matter, which can be up to one million times lighter than the mass of the proton. The new schemes rely on inel...
