A new method quantifies quantum entanglement using normalized entanglement witnesses, enhancing the ability to measure entanglement across different scenarios. Prof. Sixia Yu, Associate Researcher Liangliang Sun, and Xiang Zhuo from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the.
Scientists have discovered remains of a hiker that could potentially be hundreds of years old. The remains were first found decades ago, and researchers are now working to determine the age and identity of the hiker. This discovery sheds light on the history of hiking and the potential for uncovering more ancient remains on popular hiking trails.
A recent study suggests that the near-collapse of the geomagnetic field during the Ediacaran period may have played a role in the diversification of life on Earth. This coincided with a significant increase in oxygen levels, which could have provided a favorable environment for the development of new species. The ultra-weak geomagnetic field may have allowed for increased solar radiation, leading to higher oxygen production through photosynthesis. This discovery sheds light on the potential impact of Earth’s magnetic field on the evolution of life.
Scientists have discovered mysterious objects in space that could potentially be giant Dyson Spheres, structures built by advanced civilizations to harness the energy of their stars. This discovery is both exciting and poetic, as it represents humanity’s ongoing search for other intelligent life in the vast expanse of the Milky Way. While the objects have not yet been confirmed as Dyson Spheres, the possibility alone is enough to spark curiosity and wonder about the potential for other civilizations in our universe.
Scientists have analyzed locks of Ludwig van Beethoven’s hair and found evidence of lead poisoning, which may have contributed to his chronic ailments and deafness. This discovery sheds new light on the famous composer’s health and adds to the ongoing debate about the cause of his death.
X-ray experiments reveal that a semimetal exhibits “orbital texture”—an exotic electronic structure resulting in spin-dependent electron transport.
Summary: Researchers developed a groundbreaking model called Brain Language Model (BrainLM) using generative artificial intelligence to map brain activity and its implications for behavior and disease. BrainLM leverages 80,000 scans from 40,000 subjects to create a foundational model that captures the dynamics of brain activity without the need for specific disease-related data.
This model significantly reduces the cost and scale of data required for traditional brain studies, offering a robust framework that can predict conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD more effectively than other tools. The BrainLM demonstrates a potent application in clinical trials, potentially halving the costs by identifying patients most likely to benefit from new treatments.
JPMorgan Chase says it has discovered a data breach affecting the personal information of nearly half a million customers.
New filings with the Office of the Maine Attorney General show the banking giant recently found a software issue that’s been active since August 26th, 2021.
The bug allowed unauthorized access to retirement plan records of 451,809 customers, which contain names, addresses, Social Security numbers and bank account numbers.
