“Researchers used deep reinforcement learning to steer atoms into a lattice shape, with a view to building new materials or nanodevices. In a very cold vacuum chamber, single atoms of silver form a star-like lattice. The precise formation is not …

“The standard view of gamma-ray bursts as a signature for different types of dying stars might need a rewrite. Recent astronomical observations, supported by theoretical modeling, reveal a new observational fingerprint of neutron-star mergers, which may shed light on the …

“From cars to cans, we are surrounded by the enduring silvery shine of aluminium. We asked metallurgist Casper van der Eijk what makes it worth its weight in gold. Despite being the most abundant metal on Earth, constituting over 8 …

“Rice theorists’ method can predict shapes of crystals that lack symmetry A crystal’s shape is determined by its inherent chemistry, a characteristic that ultimately determines its final form from the most basic of details. But sometimes the lack of …
News Accelerating plastic degradation in the environment: Bayreuth study researches heat resistance of enzymes

“Numerous plastics are principally biodegradable, but are only degraded very slowly in the open air, wastewater, or composting plants. Known enzymes with the ability to degrade plastics could solve this problem. To do so, however, they must be able to …

“Astronomers on a historically ambitious and massive galaxy-mapping mission have activated more than 10,000 amateur scientists in 85 countries to help in their quest. Now they hope to significantly scale up their volunteer force for a unique project that …

“New technique could diminish errors that hamper the performance of super-fast analog optical neural networks. As machine-learning models become larger and more complex, they require faster and more energy-efficient hardware to perform computations. Conventional digital computers are struggling to keep …
