Phys.org / Room-temperature skyrmion-based synapses could pave the way for energy-efficient AI
Artificial intelligence is transforming how information is generated, processed and stored, but its rapid expansion is also driving unprecedented demand for computing power and electricity. Developing hardware that can process ...
Phys.org / Identifying old-growth forests in Northern Europe requires common scientific criteria
Old-growth forests are some of Europe's most valuable natural ecosystems, but they are also among the most threatened. Their role in conserving biodiversity, regulating the climate, preserving cultural heritage and supporting ...
Phys.org / How the 2024 solar superstorm drained Earth's radiation belt
