Phys.org / Quantum memory surpasses classical limits for storing unknown quantum operations
Quantum memories, systems that store and retrieve information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, can outperform classical storage systems on some existing tasks. Yet these promising memories could also complete operations ...
Phys.org / Stretchy, soft, and sticky: Advancing the next generation of wearable and implantable sensors
Wearable and implantable biosensors have the potential to revolutionize health care by diagnosing, monitoring, and even treating a wide range of health conditions. Recent innovations in the lab of Wei Gao, professor of medical ...
Phys.org / Quantum witness technique reveals spinons in quantum spin liquid candidate
Physicists at University College Cork have developed a new approach in the search for a quantum spin liquid, a long-sought state of quantum matter resembling a magnetic liquid whose quantum properties mean it never freezes. ...
Medical Xpress / How often do people pass gas? There's now an app for that
Flatulence, or farting, is something people often joke about or find embarrassing when it happens unexpectedly. It is, however, an essential bodily function that allows the digestive system to keep pressure within the intestinal ...
Tech Xplore / Anthropic opens most powerful AI model to public with safeguards
Anthropic, maker of the Claude artificial intelligence (AI) models, made the most powerful version of its technology available to the general public on Tuesday while restricting its use in sensitive areas.
Medical Xpress / A brain-computer interface that works with—not against—the brain
It might soon be "game over" for the video game controller. Yale researchers have developed a new kind of brain-computer interface (BCI) that lets humans play video games directly with their brains. Using real-time fMRI (functional ...
Phys.org / Why plastic lingers: Water chemistry slows nature's cleanup
Scientists have long known that sunlight helps break down plastic. So, why do plastic products linger for decades and even centuries in rivers, lakes, and oceans—even when bathed in direct sunlight? Northwestern University ...
Medical Xpress / AI diagnoses brain tumors in minutes instead of weeks
Experts in Heidelberg, Germany, have developed an AI system that can classify brain tumors with unprecedented accuracy using standard microscopic tissue sections. Using digitized standard stains, the system identifies more ...
Phys.org / Critically endangered Chinese pangolin found in Nepal's sacred forest
The rare Chinese pangolin (Manis pentadactyla) has been spotted for the first time in Sunsari District in eastern Nepal. This brings the total number of districts in the country where the critically endangered species has ...
Medical Xpress / Augmented reality system could make medical ultrasounds easier to interpret
Interpreting medical ultrasound images is a difficult task, requiring a technician to look at 2D images and mentally arrange them into a 3D representation of what the tissue looks like. To make that job easier, MIT researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Brain aneurysm map reveals cell types tied to rupture risk
A new study from UC San Francisco shows how certain cells in the brain may cause aneurysms to weaken and rupture. It helps explain why some aneurysms burst while others do not and could lead to new ways of predicting and ...
Tech Xplore / Ultra-thin MoS₂ computer packs 1,400 transistors onto one chip
The rapid advancement and diffusion of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as the machine learning models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and similar platforms, have posed new demands on the electronics ...
