Phys.org / Quantum simulator realizes strongly interacting Mott-Meissner phases in bosonic flux ladders
When exposed to periodic driving, which is the time-dependent manipulation of a system's parameters, quantum systems can exhibit interesting new phases of matter that are not present in time-independent (i.e., static) conditions. ...
Medical Xpress / Reactivation of specific memories can indirectly strengthen related ones, study finds
Most humans can recall specific events and past experiences for long periods of time. This capability, referred to as episodic memory, is known to be in great part supported by the activity of neurons in the hippocampus and ...
Phys.org / Using a fermionic neural network to find the ground state of fractional quantum Hall liquids
When two-dimensional electron systems are subjected to magnetic fields at low temperatures, they can exhibit interesting states of matter, such as fractional quantum Hall liquids. These are exotic states of matter characterized ...
Phys.org / Conversational agent can create executable quantum chemistry workflows
Artificial intelligence (AI) agents and large-language models (LLMs), such as the model underpinning OpenAI's conversational platform ChatGPT, are now widely used by people worldwide, both in informal and professional settings. ...
Phys.org / TeV halos could be a common feature of middle-aged pulsars, study shows
Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit regular radio wave pulses and beams of magnetic radiation, which can sometimes be detected from Earth. These pulsating stars are dense remnants of massive stars whose life ...
Tech Xplore / Third-party data annotators often fail to accurately read the emotions of others, study finds
Machine learning algorithms and large language models (LLMs), such as the model underpinning the functioning of the platform ChatGPT, have proved to be effective in tackling a wide range of tasks. These models are trained ...
Medical Xpress / Exposure to gun violence linked to widespread psychological distress in US adults
Psychology research has consistently emphasized the adverse effects of enduring or witnessing violent acts, showing that exposure to different forms of violence can increase the risk of developing various mental health conditions. ...
Phys.org / Astrobee learns to transport soft cargo: Open-source simulator models real ISS challenges
Astrobee is a free-flying robotic system developed by NASA that is made up of three distinct cube-shaped robots. This system was originally designed to help astronauts who are working at the International Space Station (ISS) ...
Medical Xpress / Glial cells may play key role in managing sleep and metabolism, fruit fly study suggests
Homeostasis is the ability of living organisms to maintain stable internal conditions, such as temperature, hydration and blood sugar levels, irrespective of any changes in their surroundings. Homeostatic mechanisms also ...
Phys.org / Nanoparticle-cell interface enables electromagnetic wireless programming of mammalian transgene expression
Recent technological advances are fueling the development of cutting-edge technologies that can monitor and control physiological processes with high precision. These include devices that could control the expression of genes ...
Tech Xplore / A new strategy to fabricate highly performing thin-film tin perovskite transistors
Tin-halide perovskites, a class of tin-based materials with a characteristic crystal structure that resembles that of the compound calcium titanate, could be promising alternatives to commonly used semiconductors. Past studies ...
Phys.org / Two distinct exciton states observed in 2H stacked bilayer molybdenum diselenide
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have proved to be a promising platform for studying exotic quasiparticles, such as excitons. Excitons are bound states that emerge when an electron in a material absorbs energy and rises to ...
Medical Xpress / The words of health care providers during prenatal care visits can influence how parents see their children
Pregnancy is often a unique experience, marked by anticipation and mental representations of what will happen after a baby's birth. Understanding how people's experiences while pregnant influence their parenting skills and ...
Tech Xplore / Study maps three decades of white LED progress and key innovation drivers
White light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the semiconductor devices underpinning the functioning of countless lighting technologies on the market today, were first released to the public in 1996. Following their commercial debut, ...
Tech Xplore / Whole-body teleoperation system allows robots to perform coordinated tasks with human-like dexterity
The ability to remotely control robots in real-time, also known as teleoperation, could be useful for a broad range of real-world applications. In recent years, some engineers have been trying to develop teleoperation systems ...
