From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.

Even if a random number generator used seemingly random processes in nature, it would be hard to verify that those numbers are truly random, Shalm added.

Technology Engineering Here’s how to generate a truly random number with quantum physics CURBy is available online and free to use. Andrew Paul Jun 12, 2025 2:01 PM EDT ...

The students participating in the annual International Math Olympiad (IMO) represent some of the most talented young computational minds in the world. This year, they faced down a newly enhanced array ...

A quantum random number generator developed in Spain is at the heart of a service being offered for free over the Internet.

We present a true random number generator (TRNG) using dark noise of a CMOS image sensor. Because the proposed TRNG is based on the dark characteristics of the CMOS image sensor, it does not require ...

Scientists have built the first ever traceable and certifiable random number generator that uses quantum entanglement.

This article describes a novel concept of a true random generator (TRNG) which exploits random behavior from a nearly-metastable operation of groups of FPGA flip-flops in opposite to many ...

Even if a random number generator used seemingly random processes in nature, it would be hard to verify that those numbers are truly random, Shalm added. Instrumentation for the quantum random number ...

That study found that when asked to choose random numbers between one and five, the LLMS would choose three or four. For ...
