“Sir Karland, you imply this project is secret, that not even the Brinian Royal Council, or R.B.R.D.C. knows of its existence, is this true?”
A study explores how the jolly gift-bringer’s Christmas Eve deliveries could serve as an engaging analogy for quantum teleportation.
What if we could see spacetime? Embark on a visual journey through the invisible gravitational currents that shape our universe.
Researchers have discovered magnetic fields deep within the merging galaxy Arp 220, suggesting these fields might be crucial for efficient star formation, acting like a cosmic lid that prevents the “boiling over” of star-forming materials.
This breakthrough, observed using the Submillimeter Array in Hawaii, could explain why some galaxies produce stars more effectively than others.

Scientists have found a way to directly convert sunlight into laser beams in space.
In the future, spacecraft could get rid of the limited fuel problem by tapping into the limitless energy of the sun.

The research team, led by physics professor Nuh Gedik, concentrated on a material called FePS₃, a type of antiferromagnet that transitions to a non-magnetic state at around −247°F. They hypothesized that precisely exciting the vibrations of FePS₃’s atoms with lasers could disrupt its typical antiferromagnetic alignment and induce a new magnetic state.
In conventional magnets (ferromagnets), all atomic spins align in the same direction, making their magnetic field easy to control. In contrast, antiferromagnets have a more complex up-down-up-down spin pattern that cancels out, resulting in zero net magnetization. While this property makes antiferromagnets highly resistant to stray magnetic influences – an advantage for secure data storage – it also creates challenges in intentionally switching them between “0” and “1” states for computing.
Gedik’s innovative laser-driven approach seeks to overcome this obstacle, potentially unlocking antiferromagnets for future high-performance memory and computational technologies.
Discovery draws surprising parallels between low-level organisms and sophisticated neurons; lays the groundwork for memory-capable biological systems.
Biologists studying collectives of bacteria, or “biofilms,” have discovered that these so-called simple organisms feature a robust capacity for memory.
Researchers at the Tokyo-based startup Sakana AI have developed a new technique that enables language models to use memory more efficiently, helping enterprises cut the costs of building applications on top of large language models (LLMs) and other Transformer-based models.
The technique, called ‘universal transformer memory,’ uses special neural networks to optimize LLMs to keep bits of information that matter and discard redundant details from their context.
