Phys.org / Quantum internet leaves the lab with first real-world entanglement over busy telecom fiber
Quantum information is notoriously fragile. Internet traffic is anything but. Yet Northwestern University scientists have demonstrated they can peacefully coexist inside the same fiber-optic cable.
Phys.org / Water-surface vortices drive tiny rotors without electricity, magnets or chemicals
Reliably generating controlled miniature rotations has long been a challenge: Chemical propulsion systems wear out, and methods that use electric or magnetic fields require complex setups. A team from KIT's Institute of Microstructure ...
Phys.org / Light-driven chemistry method could create antiviral compound libraries 10 to 100 times larger within weeks
As the world faces new and often untreatable viral threats, Simon Fraser University researchers have found a way to cut years off the time it takes to discover antiviral drugs. The new research enables scientists to quickly ...
Medical Xpress / GLP-1 diabetes drugs linked to up to 68% higher hair loss risk
The use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity is associated with an increased risk of hair loss (alopecia) in adults with type 2 diabetes, a study published by The BMJ finds. ...
Phys.org / Neural networks unlock larger quantum simulations with lower computational costs
In recent years, research using artificial intelligence to predict material properties has advanced rapidly. Neural network quantum Monte Carlo methods have attracted attention as highly accurate simulation techniques. However, ...
Phys.org / Even a slight overproduction of tubulin can tip the balance of cellular health, study shows
For cells to function properly, they must produce the right amount of each protein. It is a delicate balance: Both too little and too much can compromise essential cellular functions. A team from the University of Geneva ...
Phys.org / Plasma design rules show how to preserve attosecond flashes for observing electrons
Researchers at Skoltech, together with a colleague from the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, working within the joint SIOM–Skoltech laboratory, have determined how to select ...
Medical Xpress / How a pandemic detour helped researchers uncover clues to a mysterious disease
When the COVID-19 pandemic shut down international travel in 2020, Michigan State University researcher Eric Benbow faced a problem. A $2.5 million research project designed to study an environmental pathogen in South America ...
Phys.org / AI and quantum chemistry combine to identify efficient blue OLED materials
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have become a standard in modern devices with incredible contrast and sleek designs. While initially an expensive luxury, OLEDs are gradually becoming more financially accessible as the ...
Phys.org / Why river management is so crucial to protecting one of world's most important wetlands
A major new study led by Swansea University has shown that upstream river management, rather than local rainfall, is the primary driver of one of the world's most important wetlands. According to the research published in ...
Phys.org / Engineered enzyme erases a stubborn mark of aging by up to 70% in human tissue samples
A biotech company called Revel Pharmaceuticals is looking into ways to reverse aging, and the company's science team, along with researchers from the company Calico and the University of Colorado, may be a step closer to ...
Medical Xpress / Gut immune cells may help explain how B-cell depletion controls MS
B-cell depletion therapies, in which B cells of the immune system that may drive disease activity in multiple sclerosis (MS) are temporarily removed, have contributed significantly to improved treatment for patients in recent ...
