Tech Xplore / AI at the speed of light just became a possibility
Researchers at Aalto University have demonstrated single-shot tensor computing at the speed of light, a remarkable step towards next-generation artificial general intelligence hardware powered by optical computation rather ...
Tech Xplore / AI-powered LED system delivers stable wireless power for indoor IoT devices
The world's first automatic and adaptive, dual-mode light-emitting diode (LED)-based optical wireless power transmission system, that operates seamlessly under both dark and bright lighting conditions, has been developed ...
Phys.org / Shocked galaxy clusters: Unraveling the mysteries of radio relics
Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound structures in the universe, with each containing hundreds or even thousands of galaxies. When two of these giants collide, they send powerful shock waves through one another, ...
Phys.org / Optimal scaling for magic state distillation in quantum computing achieved
Researchers have demonstrated that the theoretically optimal scaling for magic state distillation—a critical bottleneck in fault-tolerant quantum computing—is achievable for qubits, improving on the previous best result ...
Tech Xplore / Low-grade heat from renewable sources could be used to desalinate water
A McGill University-led research team has demonstrated the feasibility of a sustainable and cost-effective way to desalinate seawater. The method—thermally driven reverse osmosis (TDRO)—uses a piston-based system powered ...
Tech Xplore / New pathways to green hydrogen use seawater without additional reagents
An international research team led by the University of Bayreuth has developed an innovative method for producing green hydrogen directly from seawater—without the use of additional reagents. The researchers report their ...
Medical Xpress / LSD microdosing reduces depression scores without major side effects, clinical trial finds
University of Auckland researchers report that an 8-week, twice-weekly LSD microdosing regimen for major depressive disorder was feasible and well-tolerated, with Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) scores ...
Phys.org / Reading a quantum clock costs more energy than running it, study finds
A study led by the University of Oxford has identified a surprising source of entropy in quantum timekeeping—the act of measurement itself. In a study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists demonstrate that the ...
Medical Xpress / Microfluidic device captures pancreatic cancer's 'seeds of metastasis'
Pinned between the stomach and spine, the pancreas supervises both digestion and blood sugar in the body. It's also the site of an aggressive cancer called pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, or PDAC.
Tech Xplore / Unique resin allows 3D-printing method to add and subtract
Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is normally a one-way street. In a digital light processing (DLP) printer, a structured pattern is projected onto a layer of liquid resin, which cures and solidifies. This builds an ...
Phys.org / Fighting poverty may require cultural wisdom, not just cash
Most poverty-fighting efforts focus on meeting basic material needs, such as food and shelter. But this overlooks the psychological and cultural factors that shape how people take action in their lives.
Phys.org / Twin Mars orbiters launched on New Glenn rocket to study Martian atmosphere
Blue Origin launched its huge New Glenn rocket Thursday with a pair of NASA spacecraft destined for Mars.
