Tech Xplore / New model bridges ferroelectric physics and circuit modeling
A new physics-based analytical model can accurately predict ferroelectric behavior under real-world, complex voltages, according to a study led by University of Michigan Engineering. The model bridges the longstanding gap ...
Medical Xpress / Simplifying the application process for public assistance programs can achieve true government efficiency
Each year, millions of Americans spend a significant amount of time applying to Medicaid, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and other public assistance programs to meet their basic food and health care ...
Science X / Why eye contact may help babies learn: A hidden link between two brains
Have you ever noticed how babies get hooked the moment someone makes eye contact with them? That eye contact is not only cute; it may also send a powerful message to a baby. For years, scientists have been investigating whether ...
Tech Xplore / A novel chip-on-wafer platform for next-generation AI hardware
A new semiconductor integration platform developed at the Institute of Science Tokyo combines advanced chip packaging with high-density interconnects and improved thermal management. This combination of three complementary ...
Phys.org / Immune 'reprogramming' could protect poultry from deadly diseases without antibiotics
University of Bristol–led researchers have identified a naturally occurring gut molecule that could strengthen chickens' immune response against a wide range of bacterial infections. This development, published today, Aug. ...
Phys.org / Engineered lipase could improve production of higher-value specialized lipids
Food and pharmaceutical manufacturers increasingly seek lipids with carefully controlled fatty-acid compositions. However, natural oils usually contain mixtures of closely related fatty acids, and conventional enzymes often ...
Phys.org / Spontaneous magnons synchronize with external signals at room temperature
Signals ride on waves of one kind or another: light, sound, radio. But new carriers are needed to relay information in next-generation devices. Disturbances or waves in magnetic materials called magnons could be an efficient ...
Tech Xplore / New manufacturing platform could shrink costs for 6G beam-steering antennas
For the first time, researchers have developed a technology that could enable 6G antennas to be mass-produced on wafers in much the same way as semiconductor devices.
Medical Xpress / New research shows nearly half of U.S. pre-K-12 schools are near environmental hazard sites
More than 3 million children enrolled in pre-K–12 schools in the U.S. attend a school located within a quarter mile of a known environmental hazard site tracked by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Phys.org / Three supermassive black holes discovered in a single galaxy for the first time
An international team of astronomers led by the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics has identified three actively accreting supermassive black holes in the galaxy J0148-4214. Matter is falling into the black ...
Medical Xpress / Brain inflammation may cast a long dementia shadow in older survivors of encephalitis
Encephalitis is a serious condition in which an infection or autoimmune response triggers inflammation of the brain. The resulting swelling can disrupt normal brain function, causing neurological changes such as confusion, ...
Phys.org / Light-controlled molecular switches offer exciting possibilities for future electronics, data storage
Whether it's neurons responding to electrical signals or plants stretching toward light, nature is filled with examples of biological materials that respond to their environment. Now, researchers want to develop new responsive ...
