“New results from researchers at MIT reveal an unexpected feature of atomic nuclei when a “magic” number of neutrons is reached. A curious thing happened when MIT researchers Adam Vernon and Ronald Garcia Ruiz, along an international team of scientists …
“Researchers created Exo for writing high-performance code on hardware accelerators. Moore’s Law needs a hug. The days of stuffing transistors on little silicon computer chips are numbered, and their life rafts — hardware accelerators — come with a price. When programming …
“Observations reveal the angle dependence of the magnetic field needed to suppress superconductivity in CeRh2As2. Uniquely, the behavior of “odd parity” superconductors is revealed. Superconductivity is a fascinating state of matter in which an electrical current can flow without any …
“As several companies across the globe move closer to delivering scaled production of solar EVs, a team in China has taken sustainable transportation a step further by creating a solar vehicle that runs entirely on energy from the sun. Introducing …
“Beautifully designed, energy-generating bio-panels that suck up carbon dioxide and pump out biomass for use as fuel or fertilizer – that’s the idea behind Mexican startup Greenfluidics and its nanotech-enhanced microalgae bioreactor building panels. The idea of using flat algae …
“It opens the door to farming in previously infertile locations — such as space. Future farms might grow crops in total darkness, thanks to “artificial photosynthesis” that eliminates plants’ need for sunlight. Not only could this allow us to grow more …
“The clear and periodic pattern of fast radio bursts may originate from a distant neutron star. Astronomers at MIT and universities across Canada and the United States have detected a strange and persistent radio signal from a far-off galaxy that …
“Highly compressed mid-infrared optical waves in a thin dielectric crystal on monocrystalline gold substrate investigated for the first time using a high-resolution scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscope. KAIST researchers and their collaborators at home and abroad have successfully demonstrated a …
“With the launch of the CELESTA satellite for radiation monitoring in space, CERN shows its expertise in the field of radiation effects on electronics CELESTA, the first CERN-driven satellite, successfully entered orbit during the maiden flight of Europe’s …
News China begins construction on world’s most far-reaching radar system, to boost defense against near-Earth asteroid impact
“In a move to play increasingly role in global efforts to safeguard Planet Earth, China has recently begun constructing a new high-definition deep-space active observation facility in the country’s Southwest Chongqing municipality, with goals including boosting its defense capability …
