Quantum Mechanics Helps Physicists Pull Energy Out of Thin Air as Evident in Two Separate Experiments

Posted by in categories: energy, quantum physics

A shelved theory seems to have given new life to energy teleportation, a concept that pulls energy from one location to another. The notion might sound like science fiction, but some scientists demonstrated that it is possible to generate energy out of thin air.

According to The Space Academy, scientists were able to extract energy and filled a vacuum through two separate experiments. It has indeed opened a fresh world of quantum energy physics.

Scientists Found a Multidimensional Universe Right Inside Our Brain

Posted by in categories: mathematics, neuroscience

Experts have discovered that the human brain has structures and forms with up to 11 dimensions, which is a remarkable finding. “We discovered a realm that we had never envisaged,” neuroscientists said of the finding. Algebraic topology mathematical approaches have aided researchers in discovering structures and multidimensional geometric spaces in brain networks. A recent study, according to specialists, has demonstrated that the human brain has structures and forms with up to 11 dimensions. According to Science Alert, our brains have an estimated 86 billion neurons, with many connections from each cell stretching in every imaginable direction, making a super-vast cellular network that SOMEHOW allows us to think and be conscious.

Scientists have actually discovered how to time travel

Posted by in category: time travel

Scientists Think They’ve Identified the Origin of a Mysterious Radio Signal from … Ready to be a little bit confused by complex science? Ok, here we go… Until now, time travel has only been possible in fiction (and on TikTok, according to some), but it might not be as far away as previously thought.

Physicists Levitated a Glass Nanosphere, Nudging It Into The Realm of Quantum Mechanics

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics, space

Quantum mechanics deals with the behavior of the Universe at the super-small scale: atoms and subatomic particles that operate in ways that classical physics can’t explain.

In order to explore this tension between the quantum and the classical, scientists are constantly attempting to get larger and larger objects to behave in a quantum-like way.

Back in 2021, a team succeeded with a tiny glass nanosphere that was 100 nanometers in diameter – about a thousand times smaller than the thickness of a human hair.

Google lays off 100 robot workers used to clean its cafeterias, says report

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

I guess humans aren’t the only ones getting the boot.🤣


Topics Google | Sundar Pichai.

According to a Wired report, Alphabet’s ‘Everyday Robots’ project — an unit under Google’s experimental X laboratories — has been shut down by Google CEO Sundar Pichai. It had trained 100 one-armed, wheeled robots to help clean the company’s cafeterias. Several of these robot prototypes were transported out of the lab and were doing useful duties throughout Google’s Bay Area facilities.

Theory sorts order from chaos in complex quantum systems

Posted by in categories: energy, quantum physics

Classical chaos – or the butterfly effect – produces fractal patterns like the one shown. Classical chaos’s cousin – quantum information scrambling – encompasses even more exotic mechanisms such as quasiparticles hopping between molecules, which can dissipate energy.

Gravity with an ON/OFF Switch | André Fuzfa | TEDxUHasselt

Posted by in categories: cosmology, mathematics

At present, scientists study gravitational fields passively. They observe and try to understand existing gravitational fields produced by large inertial masses such as stars or planets, without being able to change them, as with magnetic fields. It was this frustration that led Füzfa to attempt a revolutionary approach: creating gravitational fields at will from well-controlled magnetic fields and observing how these magnetic fields could bend space-time.

In his article, Füzfa has proposed, with supporting mathematical proof, a device with which to create detectable gravitational fields. This theoretical device is based on superconducting electromagnets and therefore relies on technologies routinely used, for example, at CERN or the ITER reactor.
