中国研究人员上月发布了一种使用超导量子干涉仪（SQUID）的重力探测器，其精度世界领先，且体积紧凑，可在实验室外使用。该设备据中国科学院网站报道，能测量微小重力变化，用于探测物体，并可能扩展军事应用。
中国研究人员开发的重力探测器利用SQUID技术，通过测量微小重力变化来探测物体。该设备据中国科学院（CAS）网站报道，将重力梯度测量噪声——如地震振动等外部干扰——降低到仅次于千米级引力波探测器的水平。
这款探测器体积相当于一个办公室隔间，而美国激光干涉引力波天文台（LIGO）等大型设备则使用相距4公里（2.5英里）的镜子研究宇宙。该紧凑设计使其适用于野外环境。
开发团队表示，该仪器可用于科学研究和探测地下资源。同时，它使中国更接近探测巡逻核潜艇的能力，如美国俄亥俄级核潜艇。现有潜艇探测方法包括声纳、磁异常探测和雷达，但这些均可被规避，而重力无法掩盖。
CAS报告强调，该技术在噪声抑制方面的进步具有世界领先精度，可能扩展军事应用。

Physicists at MIT have developed a new microscope using terahertz light to directly observe hidden quantum vibrations inside a superconducting material for the first time. The device compresses terahertz light to overcome its wavelength limitations, revealing frictionless electron flows in BSCCO. This breakthrough could advance understanding of superconductivity and terahertz-based communications.
Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China have developed the Jiuzhang 4.0 photonic quantum computing prototype, which manipulates 3,050 photons and sets a new record.

Researchers in Finland have measured an energy signal smaller than one zeptojoule using a new calorimeter. The achievement opens pathways for improved quantum computing and searches for dark matter.
Researchers at Peking University have discovered narwhal-shaped wavefunctions that trap light at scales far smaller than previously possible using only dielectric materials. The breakthrough, detailed in a 2025 paper, avoids the energy losses common in metal-based approaches. It opens paths to more efficient photonic devices and advanced imaging.

Physicists have found a potential signature of dark matter in data from a black hole merger observed in 2019. The signal known as GW190728 showed patterns consistent with the invisible substance interacting with the colliding objects. A new model developed by researchers at MIT and partner institutions made the analysis possible.
An international team of physicists has found that quantum collapse models, potentially linked to gravity, introduce a minuscule uncertainty in time itself. This sets a fundamental limit on clock precision, though far below current detection levels. The research, published in Physical Review Research, explores ties between quantum mechanics and gravity.

Researchers at East China Normal University have developed a new imaging technique that captures ultrafast events in trillionths of a second, revealing both brightness and structural changes in a single shot. The method, called compressed spectral-temporal coherent modulation femtosecond imaging (CST-CMFI), tracks phenomena like plasma formation and electron movement. Yunhua Yao, the team leader, described it as a major advance for physics, chemistry, and materials science.
