For insights into how strong lasers transform chunks of solid material into soups of electrically charged particles known as plasmas, scientists have used a common weather forecasting technique. Researchers may
The University of Tokyo team, under the direction of Professor Naoya Shibata, worked with Sony Group Corporation to successfully observe up close a two-dimensional electron
A new type of direction-dependent friction in proteins known as anisotropic friction has been discovered by an interdisciplinary research team from the Institutes of Physical
With no corrosive chemicals, high temperatures, or prior material sorting necessary, a recycling technique created by the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) can recover up to 70% of lithium from
Treatment options are limited when cancer spreads to the brain. The majority of drugs created to treat metastases either cannot cross the blood-brain barrier or
Water can be accessed in creative ways, including by being created out of thin air by chemists and engineers. Recently, researchers from the University of Chicago discovered a method to
Scientists are under great pressure to find solutions to the problems of global warming, pollution, and depleting resources by pushing the boundaries of exploration and
Two of the most well-known artificial intelligence techniques, deep neural networks and vector-symbolic models, have recently been combined by researchers at IBM Research Zürich and
Medics at the St. Louis campus of Washington University in St. Louis have identified transposable elements (TEs), brief DNA segments that can move around the genome, as a potential new
