Phys.org / An electrically powered source of entangled light on a chip
Quantum technologies are cutting-edge systems that can process, transfer, or store information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, particularly a phenomenon known as quantum entanglement. Entanglement entails a correlation ...
Medical Xpress / Blood test can identify cancer in patients with non-specific symptoms
A simple blood test can help detect cancer in patients with non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain or weight loss. This is according to a Swedish study from Karolinska Institutet, Danderyd Hospital and others, published ...
Phys.org / New method reveals quantum states using indirect measurements of particle flows
A team from UNIGE shows that it is possible to determine the state of a quantum system from indirect measurements when it is coupled to its environment.
Medical Xpress / A closer look at how local protein production is altered in ALS
The functioning of neurons, cells that transmit information in the nervous system, heavily relies on the production of proteins. Proteins are synthesized both inside cells (i.e., in the soma) and locally along axons, projections ...
Phys.org / The future of Antarctic life: Scientists map out five scenarios as climate and human pressures mount
A team of scientists has overcome a major challenge in predicting how Antarctic life will fare under future climate scenarios, revealing five scenarios for the future of Antarctic life.
Phys.org / New nanocrystalline material significantly extends MEMS switch chip lifespan
Researchers from the Institute of Metal Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a new class of high-performance materials for micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) switch chips, achieving an ultra-long ...
Medical Xpress / For diabetic patients, novel angiography FFR imaging with glucose-lowering drug effectively protects the heart
A study led by the Department of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, LKS Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed), in collaboration with the University of Hong Kong–Shenzhen Hospital, has demonstrated ...
Phys.org / Physicists bridge worlds of quantum matter
A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single exotic particle behaves in a many-body system, namely as a mobile or static impurity among a large ...
Tech Xplore / AI models tested on Dungeons & Dragons to assess long-term decision-making
Large Language Models, like ChatGPT, are learning to play Dungeons & Dragons. The reason? Simulating and playing the popular tabletop role-playing game provides a good testing ground for AI agents that need to function independently ...
Tech Xplore / Emerging solar cell material sets new efficiency record
UNSW engineers have made a major step forward in the development of a new type of solar cell that could help make future solar panels cheaper, more efficient and more durable.
Phys.org / Satellites and AI can help tackle critical invasive species problem
Satellite imagery and artificial intelligence can detect with high accuracy two invasive weed species in Australia, posing a new opportunity for defense against these pervasive plants.
Medical Xpress / Gut microbiota can predict long-term complications of acute pancreatitis
A Europe-wide study led by the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG) shows that the microbial composition of the gut, known as the gut microbiome, can predict long-term complications following severe acute pancreatitis. ...
