The one scale that rules them all

Geoffrey West's suggestion – that all complex organisms obey a few simple scaling laws – is rigorous and convincing, says Jennifer Ouellette

Scaling laws place an upper limit on the size that an animal or city could evolve to

The cutting edge of quantum physics

Daniel Twitchen and Matthew Markham explain how diamonds could become a quantum physicist’s best friend

An artist's drawing of a diamond overlain with a semi-transparent pattern of 1’s and 0’s. A green laser-like beam enters one side of the diamond and a red beam of 1’s and 0’s comes out the other side. An inset drawing shows a ball-and-stick model of atoms that make up the structure of diamond with NV defects. Black carbon atoms in a lattice surround a single blue nitrogen atom
