“It was believed that it was impossible to differentiate the enantiomers of a chiral molecule using helical light beams - until now that is, thanks to a group of uOttawa researchers. For nearly 20 years researchers believed that it was not …
“Under normal conditions, radioactive materials such as uranium work in a predictable manner. But take those same materials and put them under extreme conditions with high temperature in a short timescale and a rapid cooling process and their decomposition pathways …
“New system can teach a group of cooperative or competitive AI agents to find an optimal long-term solution. Picture two teams squaring off on a football field. The players can cooperate to achieve an objective, and compete against other players …
“Tiny magnetic whirlpools could transform memory storage in high performance computers. Magnets generate invisible fields that attract certain materials. A common example is fridge magnets. Far more important to our everyday lives, magnets also can store data in computers. Exploiting …
“Pulse radiolysis experiments help reveal how unpaired electrons at one end of a molecule can initiate chemistry at ‘distant’ locations Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory helped measure how unpaired electrons in atoms …
“New research reveals a scalable technique that uses synthetic data to improve the accuracy of AI models that recognize images. Before a machine-learning model can complete a task, such as identifying cancer in medical images, the model must be trained …
“Researchers from ICFO, Corning Incorporated, Micro Photon Devices, and Politecnico di Milano successfully demonstrate the transport of two-photon quantum states of light through a phase-separated Anderson localization optical fiber. Invented in 1970 by Corning Incorporated, low-loss optical fiber became the …
“On the eighth day of its mission, Orion continues to travel farther away from the Moon as it prepares to enter a distant retrograde orbit. The orbit is “distant” in the sense that it’s at a high altitude from …
“In one of the first studies of its kind, several people with motor disabilities were able to operate a wheelchair that translates their thoughts into movement. The study by researchers at The University of Texas at Austin and published today …
“Scientists have successfully enhanced cultivation of a microorganism that can fix nitrogen (N2) while producing methane (CH4) and ammonia (NH3) and investigated exciting details of its metabolism. Carbon and nitrogen are essential elements of life. Some organisms take up key …
