Two months after Jainendra K. Jain, Evan Pugh University Professor and Erwin W. Müller Professor of Physics and holder of the Eberly Family Chair in the Penn State Eberly College of Science, received the 2025 Wolf Prize in Physics, he has been featured on the front page of the Hindustan Times.
Earlier this year, Microsoft announced a potential breakthrough in quantum computing based, in part, on the early work of Jain and others in this space.
"He discovered a new state of matter — years ago — that is now helping Microsoft builds its quantum chips," wrote Kanika Sharma in the Hindustan Times. "There are new formulas named after him. His particles could lead to the discovery of even weirder ones. And Jain recently won the Wolf Prize, considered second only to the Nobel."
The full article and May 4 edition of the paper can be read on the Hindustan Times and for those with a Penn State account through Penn State's University Libraries press reader.
