Tech Xplore / New 3D benchmark leaves AI in knots
Today's artificial intelligence models can't even tie their own shoes.
Tech Xplore / Basalt and cotton fiber composite yarn advance textile industry's green transition
A research team from the Xinjiang Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a basalt fiber/cotton fiber composite yarn that integrates weavability with multiple functional ...
Medical Xpress / New understanding of T cell receptors may improve cancer immunotherapies
One of the most exciting advances in cancer treatments in the past decade is the development of T cell immunotherapies, in which a patient's own immune system is trained to recognize and attack dangerous cells. Yet a full ...
Phys.org / GoMars model simulates 50-year Martian dust cycle
Mars is a dusty planet dominated by vast, dry deserts, with no easily accessible sources of liquid water. Much like on Earth, dust is lifted from Mars's surface by wind and rotating air columns, transported through the atmosphere, ...
Medical Xpress / Inflammation-induced metabolic shifts linked to brain disorders
Acute systemic inflammation has long been suspected to trigger harmful processes within the brain, contributing to neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. A new study published online in the ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers develop real-time membrane imaging for sustainable water filtration
CU Boulder researchers have introduced a solution to improving the performance of large-scale desalination plants: stimulated Raman scattering (SRS).
Phys.org / The hidden physics of knot formation in fluids
Knots are everywhere—from tangled headphones to DNA strands packed inside viruses—but how an isolated filament can knot itself without collisions or external agitation has remained a longstanding puzzle in soft-matter ...
Phys.org / 'Ouzo effect' reveals how oil droplets can resist flow and form stable patterns in liquids
Whether it's Greek ouzo, French pastis or Turkish raki, when these spirits are diluted with water, the mixture becomes cloudy. The reason for this is that the aniseed oils contained in the spirit dissolve well in alcohol ...
Tech Xplore / AI system protects wireless networks from jamming attacks in real time
A research team at the University of Ottawa has developed an advanced artificial intelligence system designed to autonomously defend wireless networks from jamming attacks, operating much like a digital immune system. This ...
Phys.org / Dazzling cosmic jet reveals time-stamped history of star birth
An international team of astronomers has uncovered the most unmistakable evidence yet that the powerful jets launched by newborn stars reliably record a star's most violent growth episodes, confirming a long-standing model ...
Phys.org / Metabolic analyses of animal fossils help scientists reconstruct million-year-old environments
For the first time, scientists have analyzed metabolism-related molecules from the fossilized bones of animals that lived 1.3 to 3 million years ago, revealing insights about both the animals and their environments.
Phys.org / People tend to overestimate others' emotions, but this may boost empathy
According to a new study led by Prof. Anat Perry and her Ph.D. student, Shir Genzer, of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, together with Prof. Noga Cohen from the University of Haifa, chances are you're overestimating just ...
