Synchronized activity between the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, and thalamus plays a role in memory consolidation.
Recent claims put LK-99 as the first room temperature, ambient pressure superconductor ever. Has the game changed, or is it merely hype?
In our Universe, matter is made of particles, while antimatter is made of antiparticles. But sometimes, the physical lines get real blurry.
A recent study is the first to fabricate electronic components from endogenous molecules.
Short-hop regional flights could be running on batteries in a few years.
Lithium-ion batteries pose challenges for our transition toward renewable energy. Sodium-sulfur batteries might be a solution.
Scientists have been chasing the dream of harnessing the reactions that power the Sun since the dawn of the atomic era. Interest, and investment, in the carbon-free energy source is heating up.
Everything acts like a wave while it propagates, but behaves like a particle whenever it interacts. The origins of this duality go way back.
Innovative thinking has done away with problems that long dogged the electric devices — and both scientists and environmentalists are excited about the possibilities.
In our common experience, you can’t get something for nothing. In the quantum realm, something really can emerge from nothing.
For people with hard-to-treat depression, a non-invasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can provide relief.
Now they’re pointing the way to future battery technologies.
Are quantum fields real, or are they simply calculational tools? These 3 experiments show that if energy is real, so are quantum fields.
No matter how good our measurement devices get, certain quantum properties always possess an inherent uncertainty. Can we figure out why?
The Schumann resonances are the background hum of the entire planet. But they don’t affect humans in any way.
It has already been trialed in people and could give us a better way to analyze and stimulate the brain.
From Amazon to the US Army, everybody wants one (or 150).
Magnetic monopoles began as a mere theoretical curiosity. They might hold the key to understanding so much more.
LK-99, almost certainly, isn’t a room-temperature superconductor. The underlying physics of the phenomenon helps us understand why.
Despite the Sun’s high core temperatures, particles can’t quite overcome their mutual electric repulsion. Good thing for quantum physics!
Deliveries of the $250k Lightyear 0 will start in November 2022.
Decades ago, a disaster left three million acres of land uninhabitable and killed between 85,600 and 240,000 people. Chernobyl? No. Banqiao dam in China.
Apart from the energy needed to flip the switch, no other energy is needed to transmit the information.
The researchers suggest that their results demonstrate intelligence in silico.
The flavor is “simultaneously fascinating and… abusive.”
They are expected to be cheaper to build and even more reliable than today’s nuclear plants.
Practically all of the matter we see and interact with is made of atoms, which are mostly empty space. Then why is reality so… solid?
It has no moving parts and could allow us to tap into renewable energy year round.
For some reason, the charges on the electron and proton are equal and opposite, and their numbers are equal, too. But why?
