Researchers scanned the brain of a dead woman using a powerful 7-Tesla MRI. They collected 7.92 TeraBytes of raw data in a 100-hour scan process. The images are detailed enough to spot structures that are smaller than 0.1 millimeters wide. ...
Researchers train deep neural networks on databases that contained three-body problems and their solutions. Surprisingly, the network predicts accurate solutions at a fixed computational cost and up to 100 million times faster than the existing...
A new algorithm generates the portamento effect between any two audio signals in real-time. It seamlessly blends frequency segments from one audio signal into another, without increasing/decreasing the volume of signals. Musicians use an effect...
Researchers demonstrate revolutionary nanotechnology that significantly increases the efficiency of solar cells. It enables solar cells to capture infrared light and transform it into usable energy. Solar panels equipped with this technology could...
Python has become the second most popular language on GitHub, outranking Java. It is the 8th fastest growing programming language in 2019. The main reason behind Python’s astounding growth rate is its use in Data Science. GitHub has released...
Researchers developed a better version of alternating current electroluminescent displays. Since this stretchable display operates at low voltages, it can be safely stuck on human skin like a temporary tattoo. The increasing demand for smart...
A new experiment shows nano-circuits can produce motions directly from an electrical current. Researchers use carbon nanotubes to build such circuits. The electron-phonon interaction is one of the fundamental interactions of quasiparticles in solids...
There may be an entire class of black holes that we didn’t know about. Astronomers have spotted a black hole that is smaller than the smallest known black holes in the universe. It is just 19 kilometers wide and has a mass of about 3.3 solar...
NASA shares a ‘pumpkin Sun’ image that was captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory in 2014. The image is colorized in yellow and gold tones to create a Halloween-themed appearance. Like other stars, our Sun is a ball of gas. In terms...
Researchers investigate the effects of light in a common species of fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Not only blue light damages retinas but also cells in the brain. Daily exposure could accelerate aging, even if blue light doesn’t reach eyes. ...
An unusual diamond has been discovered in Siberia. It’s a diamond inside another diamond: the internal diamond is completely loose and freely rattles around the cavity inside the other diamond. Such crystal has never been found in the...
Originated from the Roman Republic, the term dictatorship implies possession of unchecked/absolute powers by a single individual or a small group. Some ever-present components of a dictatorship regime are; rule by decree (unchecked proclamation of a...
