Complex equations can be used to investigate many of today’s major scientific issues, from large-scale climate science to nanoscale material modeling. However, the speed, energy consumption, and infrastructure of today’s digital computer systems are approaching their limit when it comes to ...

Understanding the creation of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their role in cosmic reionization depends on characterizing the prevalence and features of weak active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the early Universe. JWST recently spotted a bunch of tiny red dots in the distant Universe. ...

Using data from the Gemini North telescope in Hawai’i, a team of astronomers has measured the heaviest pair of supermassive black holes ever found. Despite being already predicted, the merging of two black holes has never been observed. This discovery offers insights into the unlikelyness of ...

Researchers have recently discovered a hidden global ocean of liquid water beneath- Saturn’s tiny moon- Mimas’ icy shell. This ocean os believed to be formed just 5 to 15 million years ago. This exclusive discovery adds Mimas to the list of moons with internal oceans, including Enceladus ...

Monitoring body temperature is crucial for detecting fever and understanding its correlation with eating, exercising, and stress. However, achieving this continuous monitoring poses a significant challenge. University of Washington researchers introduced the Thermal Earring, a ...

Using light to excite and control lattice vibrations has proven to be an effective way to alter the behavior of quantum materials when they are not in equilibrium. Expanding this approach beyond interactions among coherent phonons to include nonlinear couplings among other collective modes ...

Electronic correlation effects in quantum materials arise when there is a significant on-site Coulomb repulsion or low electron kinetic energy. These effects are prominent in materials like cuprate superconductors and heavy-fermion systems. Both effects can coexist in certain materials, such as ...

The Milky Way spins like water in a whirlpool because of the matter in its disk. In the 1970s, Vera Rubin noticed galaxies, including ours, have surprisingly flat rotation curves. This means the speed of stars stays the same across the universe instead of slowing down with distance. Rubin suggested ...

Additive manufacturing (AM), often seen as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional manufacturing, is praised for its efficient use of materials, reduced waste, and ability to incorporate intricate designs. While AM has made strides in various materials like polymers and ceramics, its application ...

Stopping using important metals in cathode materials can make rechargeable lithium-ion batteries more popular worldwide. Organic cathode materials, created from common elements on Earth, are good alternatives. However, they have yet to be able to compete with inorganic cathodes because they ...
