Research predicts the high-temperature topological superconductivity of twisted double-layer copper oxides
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene or transition metal dichalcogenides, can sometimes be assembled into bilayers with a twist between individual layers. In recent years, many...
Researchers create a hybrid technology that combines III-V tunnel FETs and MOSFETs
Over the past few decades, the incredible progress made in the electronics industry has been partially driven by innovations at the single-transistor level. A transistor is a semiconducting device...
A device-independent protocol for more efficient random number generation
Recent advancements in the development of experimental Bell tests have enabled the implementation of a new type of device-independent random number generator. Remarkably, this new type of random...
SN4KE: A lightweight and scalable framework for binary mutation testing
When developers deliver software to their clients, they often also provide what is known as a 'test suite.' A test suite is a tool that allows users to test software, unveil any bugs it might have...
IBM Researcher Benjamin Lee Discusses the Company’s Recent Contributions to the Field of Silicon Photonics
The optoelectronics area, silicon photonics, may one day revolutionise computing efficiency. Ingrid Fadelli interviewed Benjamin Lee, an expert in optical networking systems and photonics at IBM’s...
Study finds that mPOA neurons mediate stress-induced anxiety and parental behavior in mice
Anxiety is a common emotional state that can be particularly pronounced or difficult to process for individuals diagnosed with anxiety disorders and depression. While neuroscientists have carried...
Study shows that the GW190521 event could be explained by primordial black holes
In September 2020, the LIGO/Virgo collaboration, a large team of scientists working at different universities worldwide, announced that they had detected most massive gravitational wave binary...
MeInGame: A deep learning method to create videogame characters that look like real people
In recent years, videogame developers and computer scientists have been trying to devise techniques that can make gaming experiences increasingly immersive, engaging and realistic. These include...
An open-source machine learning framework to carry out systematic reviews
When scientists carry out research on a given topic, they often start by reviewing previous study findings. Conducting systematic literature reviews or meta-analyses can be very challenging and time...
Researchers unveil issues with nuclear theory, observe no magic behavior at N=32 in charge radii of potassium isotopes
Measuring the size of atomic nuclei has sometimes been useful to probe aspects of nucleon-nucleon interaction and the bulk properties of nuclear matter. The charge radius of atomic nuclei, which can...
