Phys.org / Quantum computers go high-dimensional with a four-state photon gate
The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum computer: The realization of a novel type of quantum logic gate makes it possible to carry out ...
Phys.org / Cannabis essential oils unlock how camphor repels mosquitoes
From summer evenings to global disease prevention, mosquito repellents are a daily defense for billions of people, yet until now, scientists didn't fully understand how mosquitoes themselves perceive these "keep away" signals. ...
Medical Xpress / Early birds, active folks less likely to develop ALS
Early birds and active folks are less likely to develop the degenerative brain disease called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a new study says. People who are early birds had a 20% lower risk of ALS—also known as Lou ...
Phys.org / Targeted climate policies are successfully cutting carbon, study shows
Countries with stricter and better-targeted climate policies cut carbon emissions faster, according to a major new study by researchers in the UK and EU. The study draws on the most comprehensive climate policy dataset ever ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers find important clue to healthy heartbeats
A tiny region in a little-known muscle protein may hold the key to a healthy, steady heartbeat, as well as possible clues to future treatment of devastating heart ailments. Washington State University researchers have found ...
Tech Xplore / AI model edits can leak sensitive data via update 'fingerprints'
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are now widely used by millions of people worldwide, as tools to source information or tackle specific tasks more rapidly and efficiently. Today, some of the most used are large language ...
Tech Xplore / Borrowing from biology to power next-gen data storage
DNA, the genetic blueprints in every living organism, is nature's most efficient storage mechanism, capable of storing about 215 million gigabytes of data per gram. That storage capacity, if applied to electronics, could ...
Phys.org / Hair-width LEDs could eventually replace lasers
LEDs no wider than a human hair could soon take on work traditionally handled by lasers, from moving data inside server racks to powering next-generation displays. New research co-authored by UC Santa Barbara doctoral student ...
Phys.org / Jupiter's Galilean moons may have gained life's building blocks at birth
Southwest Research Institute was part of an international team that demonstrated how complex organic molecules (COMs), key chemical precursors to life, could have been incorporated into Jupiter's Galilean moons during their ...
Medical Xpress / First successes in the development of a gene therapy for incurable LAMA2-related muscular dystrophy
Researchers at the University of Basel have developed a gene therapy that could potentially treat a rare and currently fatal muscle disease in children. The study shows in animal models that a single treatment is sufficient ...
Medical Xpress / Causal link identified for air pollution, outpatient visits for chronic rhinitis
A causal relationship appears to exist between increased air pollution and outpatient visits for chronic rhinitis, according to a study published in The Laryngoscope. Su Hwan Kim, from Gyeongsang National University in Jinju, ...
Medical Xpress / Study identifies erythropoietin as a potential active ingredient in Primrose syndrome
A research team from Mannheim, Göttingen, Varna, and Princeton has discovered in animal studies with mice that the growth factor recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) can significantly improve cognitive and social problems ...
