Published Misinformation and irresponsible AI -- experts forecast how technology may shape our near future



From misinformation and invisible cyber attacks, to irresponsible AI that could cause events involving multiple deaths, expert futurists have forecast how rapid technology changes may shape our world by 2040.
Published What coffee with cream can teach us about quantum physics



A new advancement in theoretical physics could, one day, help engineers develop new kinds of computer chips that might store information for longer in very small objects.
Published Offshore wind farms are vulnerable to cyberattacks



Researchers have presented a new study on cyberattack risks to offshore wind farms in Glasgow, United Kingdom. They looked specifically at wind farms that use voltage-source-converter high-voltage direct-current (VSC-HVDC) connections, which are rapidly becoming the most cost-effective solution to harvest offshore wind energy around the world. They found that their complex, hybrid-communication architecture presents multiple access points for cyberattacks.
Published New research guides mathematical model-building for gene regulatory networks



A newly published study provides guidance for building accurate mathematical models for gene regulatory networks.
Published Manipulated hafnia paves the way for next-gen memory devices



A new study outlines progress toward making bulk ferroelectric and antiferroelectric hafnia available for use in a variety of applications, including high-performance computing.
Published Researchers unveil new way to counter mobile phone 'account takeover' attacks



Computer science researchers have developed a new way to identify security weaknesses that leave people vulnerable to account takeover attacks, where a hacker gains unauthorized access to online accounts.
Published DNA origami folded into tiny motor



Scientists have created a working nanoscale electomotor. The science team designed a turbine engineered from DNA that is powered by hydrodynamic flow inside a nanopore, a nanometer-sized hole in a membrane of solid-state silicon nitride. The tiny motor could help spark research into future applications such as building molecular factories or even medical probes of molecules inside the bloodstream.
Published Self-powered sensor automatically harvests magnetic energy



Researchers have designed a self-powering, battery-free, energy-harvesting sensor. Using the framework they developed, they produced a temperature sensor that can harvest and store the energy from the magnetic field that exists in the open air around a wire.
Published Lightest black hole or heaviest neutron star? MeerKAT uncovers a mysterious object in Milky Way



An international team of astronomers have found a new and unknown object in the Milky Way that is heavier than the heaviest neutron stars known and yet simultaneously lighter than the lightest black holes known.
Published Study identifies new findings on implant positioning and stability during robotic-assisted knee revision surgery



An innovative study explores the use of robotic-assisted joint replacement in revision knee scenarios, comparing the pre- and post-revision implant positions in a series of revision total knee arthroplasties (TKA) using a state-of-the-art robotic arm system.
Published Origin of intense light in supermassive black holes and tidal disruption events revealed



A new study is a significant breakthrough in understanding Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) involving supermassive black holes. The new simulations accurately replicate the entire sequence of a TDE from stellar disruption to the peak luminosity of the resulting flare.
Published Astronomers detect oldest black hole ever observed



Researchers have discovered the oldest black hole ever observed, dating from the dawn of the universe, and found that it is 'eating' its host galaxy to death.
Published The metalens meets the stars



Researchers have developed a 10-centimeter-diameter glass metalens that can image the sun, the moon and distant nebulae with high resolution. It is the first all-glass, large-scale metalens in the visible wavelength that can be mass produced using conventional CMOS fabrication technology.
Published Ultrafast laser pulses could lessen data storage energy needs



A discovery from an experiment with magnetic materials and ultrafast lasers could be a boon to energy-efficient data storage.
Published Study delivers detailed photos of galaxies' inner structures



High-resolution images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope are offering powerful insights into the complex dust patterns of nearby star-forming galaxies.
Published New deepfake detector designed to be less biased



New algorithms close the gap in deepfake detectors' accuracy across races and genders.
Published Astronomers produce most sensitive radio image ever of ancient star cluster



Astronomers have created the most sensitive radio image ever of a globular cluster, an ancient ball of tightly-packed stars.
Published 'Smart glove' can boost hand mobility of stroke patients



This month, a group of stroke survivors in British Columbia will test a new technology designed to aid their recovery, and ultimately restore use of their limbs and hands. Participants will wear a new groundbreaking 'smart glove' capable of tracking their hand and finger movements during rehabilitation exercises.
Published Earth-sized planet discovered in 'our solar backyard'



Astronomers have discovered a planet closer and younger than any other Earth-sized world yet identified. It's a remarkably hot world whose proximity to our own planet and to a star like our sun mark it as a unique opportunity to study how planets evolve.
Published NASA scientists discover a novel galactic 'fossil'



Researchers at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center have discovered X-ray activity that sheds light on the evolution of galaxies.
