One of the more mind-boggling theories is that we live in a computer simulation. Their origin has been a puzzle since then, but astronomers have suggested that most of these particles are accelerated by fast-moving shock waves triggered by supernova explosions. The team have developed an algorithm that can simulate all the possible interactions between two elementary particles colliding with each other, something that current requires years of work and a large accelerator for study.

The researchers believe that their device represents a new route to a quantum computer – a powerful type of computer that uses quantum bits (qubits) rather than the conventional bits used in today's computers. This research was made possible by using a computer cluster devoted to these unique simulations and funded by the Canada Foundation for Innovation, as well as a supercomputer at CEA/CCRT in France. Using an exotic form of silicon could substantially improve the efficiency of solar cells, according to computer simulations by researchers at the University of California, Davis, and in Hungary. A limit like this does actually exist in our universe Even using the world's most powerful supercomputers, physicists have still only managed to simulate tiny regions of space (on the femtometre scale, that is, just a few quadrillionths of a metre). By Diane Tessman - 1 year 6 months ago. Scientists from Bristol's Centre for Quantum Photonics have developed a silicon chip that could be used to perform complex calculations and simulations using quantum particles in the near future. This month in Physical Review Letters, a group of theoretical physicists in Germany and the United States applied the forces of physics to a computer-simulated set of subatomic particles to build the structure of the Hoyle state nucleus from scratch. So in a computer-simulated world there would be limits on the energy particles can have, because nothing can exist that is smaller than the spacing between these lattice points. The algorithm would simulate all the possible interactions between two elementary particles colliding with each other, something that currently requires years of effort and a large accelerator to study. Are We Living in a Super-Computer Simulation with Aliens Beings? Using supercomputers and new mathematical techniques, physicists are working to reveal how the Hoyle state atomic nucleus gives rise to the light elements that enable life, and how it drives the evolution of stars.

Computer simulations show that when a light particle (blue wave on left) hits a crystal of a high-pressure form of silicon, it releases two electron-hole pairs (red circles/green rings), which generate electric current.
