“MIT alumnus-founded FarmWise uses autonomous machines to snip weeds while preserving crops, eliminating the need for herbicides. There’s a lot riding on farmers’ ability to fight weeds, which can strangle crops and destroy yields. To protect crops, farmers have …

“Researchers at ETH Zurich and TII Abu Dhabi, with the support of quantum optics theorists from Innsbruck, Austria, have succeeded in simultaneously cooling the motion of a tiny glass sphere in two dimensions to the quantum ground-state. This represents a …
“A research team led by Prof. XIAO Zhengguo from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has grown high-quality, large-area, ultra-thin perovskite single crystals (SCs) using space-confined inverse-temperature crystallization (SIC) method, creating a new type of highly bright …

“Materials scientist Anna Osherov helps researchers comprehend the nanoscale down to an atom using MIT.nano’s characterization tools. Stroll past MIT.nano, the Institute’s center for nanoscience and engineering, and you can peer through large panes of glass …

“Physicists at LMU play major role in new collaboration on digitalization in basic scientific research. LMU physicists Thomas Kuhr and Jochen Weller are collaborating with researchers from all over Germany in the KISS project. Funded by the German Federal Ministry …

“The device could help workers locate objects for fulfilling e-commerce orders or identify parts for assembling products. MIT researchers have built an augmented reality headset that gives the wearer X-ray vision. The headset combines computer vision and wireless perception to …

“Novel 3D-printed molecular model of the five nucleobases uses embedded magnets to accurately represent intermolecular interactions Molecular models can be a great tool to teach chemistry and biochemistry, but most of them cannot accurately depict intermolecular interactions, such as hydrogen …

“Data captured from seismic waves caused by earthquakes has shed new light on the deepest parts of Earth’s inner core, according to seismologists from The Australian National University (ANU). By measuring the different speeds at which these waves penetrate …

“Using a new system called real-time analysis, the LHCb collaboration has made filtering and analysing experiment data simpler and faster. Current technology does not allow all Large Hadron Collider (LHC) proton–proton collision data to be stored and analysed. It …

“A new JPL- and Caltech-developed detector could transform how quantum computers, located thousands of miles apart, exchange huge quantities of quantum data. Quantum computers hold the promise of operating millions of times faster than conventional computers. But to communicate over …
