Demystifying the complex nature of Arctic clouds

With dancing ribbons of light visible in the sky, a team of researchers flew on a series of scenic and sometimes stormy flights into the cold unknown, trying to learn more about why one of the most frigid places on Earth ...

The Great Observatory for Long Wavelengths (GO-LoW) proposal

Humankind has never before seen the low frequency radio sky. It is hidden from ground-based telescopes by the Earth's ionosphere and challenging to access from space with traditional missions because the long wavelengths ...

New system boosts efficiency of quantum error correction

The fragile qubits that make up quantum computers offer a powerful computational tool, yet also present a conundrum: How can engineers create practical, workable quantum systems out of bits that are so easily disturbed—and ...

86% of Great Lakes litter is plastic, 20-year study shows: And the plastic is 'just getting smaller and smaller."

Heads down and attentively scanning the ground, a small group of schoolchildren walked through an expanse of grass dotted with yellow dandelions and toward the concrete steps leading to Lake Michigan.

Quantum fiber optics in the brain enhance processing, may protect against degenerative diseases

The effects of quantum mechanics—the laws of physics that apply at exceedingly small scales—are extremely sensitive to disturbances. This is why quantum computers must be held at temperatures colder than outer space, ...

The end of the quantum tunnel: Exact instanton transseries for quantum mechanics

In the quantum world, processes can be separated into two distinct classes. One class, that of the so-called "perturbative" phenomena, is relatively easy to detect, both in an experiment and in a mathematical computation. ...

New multi-task deep learning framework integrates large-scale single-cell proteomics and transcriptomics data

The exponential progress in single-cell multi-omics technologies has led to the accumulation of large and diverse multi-omics datasets. However, the integration of single-cell proteomics and transcriptomics (or epigenomics) ...

Scientists simulate magnetization reversal of Nd-Fe-B magnets using large-scale finite element models

NIMS has succeeded in simulating the magnetization reversal of Nd-Fe-B magnets using large-scale finite element models constructed based on tomographic data obtained by electron microscopy.

Researchers establish a high-throughput multiscale evaluation method for thermal stress in thermal barrier coatings

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are widely used in gas turbine engines to obtain elevated working temperatures and improve engine efficiency. The phase transition of the ceramic layer is accompanied by a large volume difference, ...

Large retailers don't have smokestacks, but they generate a lot of pollution − and states are starting to regulate it

Did you receive a mail-order package this week? Carriers in the U.S. shipped 64 packages for every American in 2022, so it's quite possible.
