Last year, Michelle Yvonne Simons received the award of Australian of the Year for her contributions to quantum physics and its practical applications.She has launched Australia into "the space race of the computing era".
Simons, a Brit, formerly professor physics at Cambridge in England, said she emigrated to Australia and became a citizen because the country accepts young leaders in science, has public funds available to fund research, and its scientists have a culture of cooperative team spirit.
Since arriving in Australia from Britain in 1999, Professor Simmons' work at the University of NSW quantum physics department has helped develop leading technology on a global scale.
Five years ago, Professor Simmons and her team developed the world's first transistor made from a single atom, as well as the world's thinnest wire.
Now she is looking to build a quantum computer capable of solving problems in minutes, whi... less

When I charge my phone it either charges super slow or it charges the battery percentage backwards. I know most phones don't work with a single charger but I have another one that's a single charger it charges perfectly I don't get why my light up one won't. What's wrong with it ? How can I fix this ?
