Tech Xplore / Attackers bypass Windows security without physical access
Experts have shown that the most powerful security defenses in Windows 11 can be dismantled by an attacker who never touches the target computer.
Phys.org / The 'wonder material' graphene can be made using a kitchen blender, a mobile phone and a newspaper
There is something slightly ridiculous about using a kitchen blender to make graphene. This is, after all, the "wonder material" associated with futuristic technologies. You might reasonably expect its production to involve ...
Phys.org / Quantum computer microscope is set to significantly improve electron microscopy
Electron microscopes are used wherever particularly small details need to be imaged. But from a strictly physical point of view, every electron in a conventional electron microscope represents a missed opportunity: If all ...
Tech Xplore / Bill Gates warns world unprepared for AI upheaval
Bill Gates warned Wednesday that the world is dangerously unprepared for the upheaval brought by artificial intelligence, with the technology destroying jobs and threatening human connection, especially for young people.
Phys.org / Meteorite dust holds records of magnetism that may have helped form the sun
Around 4.6 billion years ago, the solar system was little more than a giant ball of gas and dust. Over the next few million years, this "solar nebula" underwent a huge transformation, flattening into a disk of matter that ...
Medical Xpress / Mucus-coated tumor spheres reveal potential targets to curb colorectal cancer spread
Researchers from the University of Turku in Finland and Gustave Roussy Institute in France have discovered a molecular mechanism that regulates whether cells in an aggressive colorectal cancer are conventional or inverted ...
Medical Xpress / Precision medicine identifies influential protein in bladder cancer progression and chemotherapy effectiveness
Researchers investigating the role of progranulin in cancer progression have previously identified the signaling receptor EphA2 as critical in tumor establishment and a potential target to enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy. ...
Phys.org / Supersized quantum sensors make faint photons easier to catch
Our everyday life is flooded with photons, the quantum building blocks of light. For cutting-edge technology, from quantum computing to deep-tissue imaging, detecting every single photon counts.
Phys.org / Genetic traces reveal river residents: 1,072 species in a bucket of water
Can DNA traces in just two liters (0.5 gallons) of water reveal how a river's biodiversity changes over the course of a year? A study by the University of Duisburg-Essen using the River Lippe as an example shows how biodiversity ...
Phys.org / Parents are increasingly abusive toward teachers and principals. How can schools respond?
Some private schools have begun asking parents to sign a code of conduct to try to stop abusive behavior toward teachers.
Phys.org / New study reveals how space rocks become meteorites
What happens to a space rock as it falls through Earth's atmosphere and becomes a meteorite? By studying 75 meteorite falls captured on video and in photographs, researchers identified seven distinct phases in the journey ...
Phys.org / AI financial advice can improve decisions or steer investors wrong, experiment finds
To what extent can AI improve our financial decisions or steer us in the wrong direction? Researchers at the University of Bayreuth investigated this question in a new study involving 3,700 participants and fictional investment ...
