Microsoft just announced their first qubit which is made out of a novel material called a topological superconductor, or topoconductor for short. This is how it is made, using a superconductor layer on top of a semiconductor. If you want to find out more check out Microsoft's blog: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/quantum/

Microsoft's just unveiled a qubit that uses a topological superconductor material, this is why this material is exciting for quantum computer development, it's resitance to noise. Read more on their blog here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/quantum/

Microsoft have just announced their first topological qubit for their future quantum computers. They use a brand new material to science known as a topological superconductor which gives the qubits some robust proteciton against noise Find out more on Microsoft's blog: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/quantum/

I made this Map of Boardgames to try and capture one of my favourite hobbies in a design, and try to get my head around all the different kinds og board game out there. I ended up learning a load about board games design which was cool!

In my latest video I got to visit Microsoft’s Quantum Lab where they are developing an entirely new form of quantum computer. This was really fun for me because, not only was I pretty much the first person from outside Microsoft who has got to see this, it is also weirdly similar to the research I was doing in my PhD on superconducting nanowires as the core of Microsoft’s quantum computers are superconducting nanowires that have amazing topological properties which I explain in the video. I hope you enjoy it!

I present to you: The Map of Plants

Showing you all of the different kinds of plants that exist today and how they are all related to each other from their evolutionary history.

Big thanks to the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew in London and the experts who work their for their knowledge and support in helping me make this video and design

You shouldn't be able to see neutrinos, but one will hit one of your eyes on average once every 89 thousand years, or 10 people per hour on Earth!

This is the Map of Black Holes which isn’t a map of where all the black holes are in space, it’s a concept map of the subject of black holes: laying out our current knowledge of them. Their structure including Schwarzschild radius or event horizon, the singularity, photon sphere, innermost stable orbit, accretion disk, Hawking radiation and the difference between rotating and non-rotating black holes. I also look at the evidence for their existence, the many ways we have detected them though x-ray astronomy, gravitational wave astronomy and radio astronomy. Then the many outstanding mysteries still to be solved including wormholes, the holographic theory and information paradox. They are very fascinating objects indeed.
