Phys.org / New copy of earliest poem in English language discovered by researchers in Rome
An early ninth-century manuscript containing a text of the first known poem in the English language has been discovered in Rome by researchers from Trinity College Dublin. The newly-discovered manuscript in the National Central ...
Tech Xplore / Brain-inspired approach can teach AI to doubt itself just enough to avoid overconfidence
Most contemporary artificial intelligence (AI) systems learn to complete tasks via machine learning and deep learning. Machine learning is a computational approach that allows models to uncover patterns in data that are useful ...
Medical Xpress / New autism therapy may improve children's social communication in just five days
A new non-invasive brain stimulation technique known as accelerated continuous theta burst stimulation (a-cTBS) improves social communication at one month follow-up and has a favorable safety profile in children with autism, ...
Phys.org / Frozen in dry ice, hydrogen reveals a surprisingly simple way to control quantum behavior
A new study by University of Maryland chemical physicists demonstrates how to control the nuclear spin of molecular hydrogen (H2) by simply freezing it in dry ice. This new technique, published in the journal Physical Review ...
Phys.org / Tiny flexible lasers enable force sensing inside living cells
Researchers have developed tiny flexible lasers that can be used to measure forces inside living cells. The new lasers could help illuminate various biological processes, including those involved in early development and ...
Phys.org / Beer waste may become sunscreen ingredient after spent hops show promising UV protection
Research conducted at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil revealed that hops (Humulus lupulus L.) industrial waste from the brewing industry is a viable option for sunscreen formulation production. The multidisciplinary ...
Medical Xpress / Glioblastoma mapping uncovers four recurring tumor cell communities, revealing treatment targets
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive type of brain cancer that is known to be very difficult to treat. One reason why this type of cancer is often resistant to available treatments is that it is characterized by a highly diverse ...
Phys.org / Microscopic sensors uncover how liquids turn glassy without structural change
A scientific discovery by researchers at Tel Aviv University's School of Chemistry offers a new perspective on a long-standing scientific mystery: how does a flowing liquid suddenly become a rigid, almost frozen material, ...
Phys.org / How rocks trap CO₂ faster: Water-driven pathway could speed long-term carbon storage
Rocks can bind carbon dioxide—and much faster than previously thought. For a long time, it was assumed that the transformation of CO2 into carbonate rock depends on very slow, time-consuming processes. According to that view, ...
Phys.org / Spintronics at BESSY II: Real-time analysis of magnetic bilayer systems
Spintronic devices enable data processing with significantly lower energy consumption. They are based on the interaction between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic layers. Now, a team from Freie Universität Berlin, HZB and ...
Tech Xplore / Evolving AI may arrive before AGI and create hard-to-control risks
Evolutionary biology holds clues for the future of AI, argue researchers from the HUN-REN Centre for Ecological Research, Eötvös Loránd University, and the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts. In a new ...
Tech Xplore / Ultralight carbon fiber lattices achieve aluminum-level performance at a fraction of the weight
Researchers at Seoul National University have developed a new class of ultralight structural materials that combine the load-bearing strength of engineering materials with the weight of foam. Using a method called 3D node ...
