IBM Research AI team demonstrated deep neural network (DNN) training with large arrays of analog memory devices at the same accuracy as a Graphical Processing Unit (GPU)-based system. This is a major step on the path to the kind of …

Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and LCW Supercritical Technologies have created five grams of yellowcake — a powdered form of uranium used to produce fuel for nuclear power production — using acrylic fibers to extract it from seawater. LCW, …

Researchers from EPFL’s Photovoltaics Laboratory and the CSEM PV-center have developed an economically competitive solution to silicon solar cells. They have integrated a perovskite cell directly on top of a standard silicon-based cell, obtaining a record efficiency of 25.2 percent. …

A new analysis of data from NASA’s Dawn mission suggests that organic matter may exist in surprisingly high concentrations on the dwarf planet’s surface. To get an initial idea of how abundant those compounds might be, the original research team …

The gravity waves that were detected might have been from the collision of wormholes. If there are gravitational echoes then the collision was from wormholes and not blackholes. There is a problem with black holes—they present an edge, called an …

Researchers created a new class of two-dimensional artificial materials with ferroelectric-like properties at room temperature that don’t exist in nature yet can conduct electricity. Above – This image shows the positions of atoms in a ferroelectric-like metal that contains barium …

Volkswagen experts will simulate the chemical structure of batteries on quantum computers. They have succeeded in simulating industrially relevant molecules using a quantum computer. This is important for the development of high-performance electric vehicle batteries. They simulated molecules like lithium-hydrogen …
