Published Accessibility toolkit for game engine Unity
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source New work makes it easier for game developers to implement game aids for people with disabilities. The toolkit focuses on players with visual impairments.
Published Peering into the tendrils of NGC 604 with NASA's Webb
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source The formation of stars and the chaotic environments they inhabit is one of the most well-studied, but also mystery-shrouded, areas of cosmic investigation. The intricacies of these processes are now being unveiled like never before by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.
Published Design rules and synthesis of quantum memory candidates
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source In the quest to develop quantum computers and networks, there are many components that are fundamentally different than those used today. Like a modern computer, each of these components has different constraints. However, it is currently unclear what materials can be used to construct those components for the transmission and storage of quantum information.
Published The role of machine learning and computer vision in Imageomics
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source A new field promises to usher in a new era of using machine learning and computer vision to tackle small and large-scale questions about the biology of organisms around the globe.
Published Method rapidly verifies that a robot will avoid collisions
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source A new safety-check technique can prove with 100 percent accuracy that a planned robot motion will not result in a collision. The method can generate a proof in seconds and does so in a way that can be easily verified by a human.
Published Making quantum bits fly
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Physicists are developing a method that could enable the stable exchange of information in quantum computers. In the leading role: photons that make quantum bits 'fly'.
Published Finding new physics in debris from colliding neutron stars
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Neutron star mergers are a treasure trove for new physics signals, with implications for determining the true nature of dark matter, according to physicists.
Published Astronomers spot oldest 'dead' galaxy yet observed
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source A galaxy that suddenly stopped forming new stars more than 13 billion years ago has been observed by astronomers. Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have spotted a 'dead' galaxy when the universe was just 700 million years old, the oldest such galaxy ever observed.
Published 3D reflector microchips could speed development of 6G wireless
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Researchers have developed a semiconductor chip that will enable ever-smaller devices to operate at the higher frequencies needed for future 6G communication technology.
Published Discovery tests theory on cooling of white dwarf stars
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Open any astronomy textbook to the section on white dwarf stars and you'll likely learn that they are 'dead stars' that continuously cool down over time. Astronomers are challenging this theory after discovering a population of white dwarf stars that stopped cooling for more than eight billion years.
Published AI can speed design of health software
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Artificial intelligence helped clinicians to accelerate the design of diabetes prevention software, a new study finds.
Published Can you tell AI-generated people from real ones?
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source If you recently had trouble figuring out if an image of a person is real or generated through artificial intelligence (AI), you're not alone. A new study found that people had more difficulty than was expected distinguishing who is a real person and who is artificially generated.
Published Shortcut to Success: Toward fast and robust quantum control through accelerating adiabatic passage
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Researchers achieved the acceleration of adiabatic evolution of a single spin qubit in gate-defined quantum dots. After the pulse optimization to suppress quasistatic noises, the spin flip fidelity can be as high as 97.5% in GaAs quantum dots. This work may be useful to achieve fast and high-fidelity quantum computing.
Published Space tourism? Cosmic radiation exposure
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Space weather experts are urging regulators and space tourism innovators to work together to protect their passengers and crews from the risks of space weather radiation exposure.
Published Groundbreaking survey reveals secrets of planet birth around dozens of stars
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source A team of astronomers has shed new light on the fascinating and complex process of planet formation. The research brings together observations of more than 80 young stars that might have planets forming around them, providing astronomers with a wealth of data and unique insights into how planets arise in different regions of our galaxy.
Published What makes black holes grow and new stars form? Machine learning helps solve the mystery
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source It takes more than a galaxy merger to make a black hole grow and new stars form: machine learning shows cold gas is needed too to initiate rapid growth -- new research finds.
Published Juno spacecraft measures oxygen production on Jupiter's moon, Europa
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source NASA's Juno spacecraft has directly measured charged oxygen and hydrogen molecules from the atmosphere of one of Jupiter's largest moons, Europa. These observations provide key constraints on the potential oxygenation of its subsurface ocean.
Published Webb unlocks secrets of one of the most distant galaxies ever seen
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Looking deeply into space and time, astronomers have studied the exceptionally luminous galaxy GN-z11, which existed when our 13.8 billion-year-old universe was only about 430 million years old.
Published New insights on how galaxies are formed
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Astronomers can use supercomputers to simulate the formation of galaxies from the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago to the present day. But there are a number of sources of error. An international research team has spent a hundred million computer hours over eight years trying to correct these.
Published Software speeds up drug development
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Sugars cover nearly all proteins present at the surface of the cells in our bodies, forming a shield around the proteins. Thus, these sugars influence how cells interact with their environment including pathogens, playing an important role in medical drug development. GlycoSHIELD, a new computational approach to study the sugar shields of proteins, is resource-reducing, time-efficient and user-friendly.
