Carnival of Nuclear Energy 280

1. Forbes – James Conca – Is Radiation Necessary For Life? Recent studies on the biological effects of radiation at essentially zero levels of radiation demonstrated that the absence of radiation is not good for organisms. Removing almost all traces of radioactivity from their environment inhibited bacterial growth and caused stress-related genes to turn on. …

Optical memory success which combined with photonic logic will enable computers 100 times faster than today

Researchers have developed the first non-volatile all-optical chip memory based on phase change material. The technology needed to commercialize this solution already exists and pairing their solution with photonic logic chips will lead to computers that are 100 times faster than currently available machines. Scientists of KIT, the University of Münster, Oxford University, and Exeter …
