A team of researchers designed and manufactured a new sodium-ion conductor for solid-state sodium-ion batteries that is stable when incorporated into higher-voltage oxide cathodes. This new solid electrolyte could dramatically improve the efficiency and...
Even the most powerful computers are still no match for the human brain when it comes to pattern recognition, risk management, and other similarly complex tasks. Recent advances in optical neural networks, however, are...
Cuántico – Los científicos de la Universidad de Cornell han identificado un nuevo competidor cuando se trata de materiales cuánticos para la informática y la electrónica de baja temperatura. Usando materiales a base de...
A new study at ISOLDE finds no signature of a “magic” number of neutrons in potassium-51, challenging the proposed magic nature of nuclei with 32 neutrons. The magic seems to be ebbing away from some atomic nuclei....
Even in the world of the smallest particles with their own special rules, things cannot proceed infinitely fast. Physicists at the University of Bonn have now shown what the speed limit is for complex...
Confirm the hypothesis – Precise synchronization of X-ray and external laser pulses is a major hurdle in analyzing data from XFEL experiments. Researchers took advantage of timing differences between two types of electrons, plotting...
Gamma-ray – Artist’s impression of PSR J2039−5617 and its companion. The binary system consists of a rapidly rotating neutron. An international research team including members from the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein...
The first-ever shot to study a high explosive sample was recently conducted at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), the world’s most energetic laser. The results from the shot included novel data that will help researchers unlock...
This article is originally published by phys.org. ” Physicists create tunable superconductivity inTwisted graphene ‘nanosandwich.” When two sheets of graphene are stacked atop each other at just the right angle, the layered structure morphs...
Physicists use atomic magnetometers to measure the biomagnetic signals of the carnivorous plant. The Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) is a carnivorous plant that encloses its prey using modified leaves as a trap. During this process, electrical...
