Samsung opens largest chip production line in South Korea
Posted by Genevieve Klien in categories: computing, electronics
South Korea’s Samsung Electronics has launched a new and its largest chip production line. The new factory was opened in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, 70 km from Seoul.
Here’s what we know
Despite the September 7 launch, the P3 line began operating as early as mid-summer. Samsung started trial production of NAND memory in July. The new facility uses ASML’s lithography machines. It is the dutch company, which is essentially a monopolist in the extreme ultraviolet lithography equipment market.

The incredible inventions of intuitive AI | Maurice Conti
Posted by Dan Breeden in categories: drones, robotics/AI
What do you get when you give a design tool a digital nervous system? Computers that improve our ability to think and imagine, and robotic systems that come up with (and build) radical new designs for bridges, cars, drones and much more — all by themselves. Take a tour of the Augmented Age with futurist Maurice Conti and preview a time when robots and humans will work side-by-side to accomplish things neither could do alone.
TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world’s leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less). Look for talks on Technology, Entertainment and Design — plus science, business, global issues, the arts and much more.

Rewriting Our Understanding of Epigenetics: Scientists Reveal We Inherit More Than Previously Thought
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: biotech/medical, genetics
A fundamental discovery concerning a driver of healthy development in embryos might rewrite our understanding of what we can inherit from our parents and how their life experiences shape us. The new study reveals that epigenetic information, which sits on top of DNA
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule composed of two long strands of nucleotides that coil around each other to form a double helix. It is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms that carries genetic instructions for development, functioning, growth, and reproduction. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA).

New Device Can Detect Alzheimer’s 17 Years in Advance
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience
Before the first clinical symptoms appear, Alzheimer’s.
Alzheimer’s disease is a disease that attacks the brain, causing a decline in mental ability that worsens over time. It is the most common form of dementia and accounts for 60 to 80 percent of dementia cases. There is no current cure for Alzheimer’s disease, but there are medications that can help ease the symptoms.

Opinion: Physicists can now use lasers to move atoms in previously untested ways
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: particle physics
The defining feature of a Bose-Einstein condensate is that its atoms behave very differently from what we normally expect. Instead of acting as independent particles, they all have the same (very low) energy and are coordinated with each other.
This is similar to the difference between photons (light particles) coming from the Sun, which may have many different wavelengths (energies) and oscillate independently, and those in laser beams, which all have the same wavelength and oscillate together.
In this new state of matter, the atoms act much more like a single, wave-like structure than a group of individual particles. Researchers have demonstrated wave-like interference patterns between two different Bose-Einstein condensates and even produce moving “BEC droplets.” The latter can be considered the atomic equivalent of a laser beam.
