\nThe Year in Physics<\/br>
\n2023-12-23 21:58:22<\/br><\/p>\n

\n

By one metric, this year\u2019s biggest physics news happened 80 years ago. Yet while the success of a movie about the making of the atomic bomb was a surprise, the discoveries coming out of actual physics laboratories \u2014 including the grandest laboratory of them all, the universe itself \u2014\u00a0were no less impressive than the surge in interest about J. Robert Oppenheimer.<\/p>\n

The James Webb Space Telescope<\/a>, now in year two of science operations, continues to return stunning images of the cosmos, and the trickle of science results from 2022 has now swelled into a torrent. From its perch a million miles away, JWST studies everything from the universe\u2019s most distant galaxies<\/a> to the planets and moons right next door. The only constant has been surprise: The telescope\u2019s observations continually challenge well-established theories<\/a> and force scientists to reimagine how familiar cosmic objects came to be \u2014 things like stars and planets and black holes.<\/p>\n

Black holes are also at the center of one of 2023\u2019s most notable discoveries: evidence for gravitational waves produced by colliding supermassive black holes<\/a>. To detect those ripples in space-time, several consortia of astronomers scrutinized the cosmos for 15 years \u2014\u00a0long enough to detect the tiny temporal fluctuations that occur as gravitational waves wash over the Earth.<\/p>\n

Closer to home, scientists are busy both manipulating and understanding the quantum world \u2014 a realm that often doesn\u2019t play by normal rules. This year saw some remarkable advances in quantum computing\u2019s most basic hardware<\/a>, the qubits that in their final form could power enormously complex calculations. And, crucially, researchers also made improvements in quantum error correction<\/a>, which remains one of the trickiest problems to solve.<\/p>\n

But these advances don\u2019t mean we\u2019re done understanding the universe from the largest of its scales to the tiniest. Our next orbit around the sun could be full of even more profound revelations.<\/p>\n
