Google’s quantum computer just simulated the hidden strings of the Universe

Scientists using Google’s quantum processor have taken a major step toward unraveling the deepest mysteries of the universe. By simulating fundamental interactions described by gauge theories, the team showed how particles and the invisible “strings” connecting them behave, fluctuate, and even break. This breakthrough opens the door to probing particle physics, exotic quantum materials, and perhaps even the structure of space and time itself.
