The mega tech company’s ambition is to operate on carbon-free energy by 2030.

In its most substantial offshore wind project deal to date, Google has signed power purchase agreements (PPAs) for over 700 megawatts of clean energy to power its European data centers.

The company’s announcement is in line with its ambitious goal to achieve net-zero emissions across all of its operations and value chain by 2030, as per Google’s Environmental Report published last year.

The neutron lifetime anomaly has been used to motivate the introduction of new physics with hidden-sector particles coupled to baryon number, and on which neutron stars provide powerful constraints. Although the neutron lifetime anomaly may eventually prove to be of mundane origin, we use it as motivation for a broader review of the ways that baryon number violation, be it real or apparent, and dark sectors can intertwine and how neutron star observables, both present and future, can constrain them.

Physicists finds evidence from just after the Big Bang that supports the controversial holographic universe theory.

A team of researchers has created the first functional 3D-printed brain tissue to examine the brain’s function and study various neurological disorders.

The first functional 3D-printed brain tissue has been developed to examine the human brain’s function and study various neurological disorders.

According to experts at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, printed tissue can “grow and function like typical brain tissue.”

Using a new technique, scientists created genetic blueprints for kangaroos, penguins, sharks and more.

New ultrafast method for controlling magnetic materials might enable next-generation information processing technologies.

As demands for computing resources continue to increase rapidly, scientists and engineers are looking for ways to build faster systems for processing information. One possible solution is to use patterns of electron spins, called spin waves, to transfer and process information much more rapidly than in conventional computers. So far, a major challenge has been in manipulating these ultrafast spin waves to do useful work.

Breakthrough in Spin Wave Manipulation.

It started as a big old ball of dust, so how did it end up like a giant pancake? Our resident physicist tells the true story using fake forces.
