Physics World Digest: October 2002 edition
Let the quantum games begin Imagine Captain Picard and Q from Star Trek playing a "coin-flipping" game on the bridge of the Starship Enterprise. But rather than playing with an ordinary coin, which can only be either heads or tails, they are using a "quantum coin" that can be both heads and tails at the same time. To Picard`s dismay and to the... view more... (2002-10-01)
Financial risk-taking behavior is associated with higher testosterone levels
