Study sheds light on the origin of elasticity in glasses and gels
Glasses and gels are two different types of solid materials that are commonly used in a wide range of settings. Despite their markedly different compositions, these distinct materials share some...
Study finds that the transport of mRNAs into axons along with lysosomal vesicles prevents axon degeneration
RNA granules, sites for the storage, transport, and regulation of RNA molecules within cells, are transported along axons and then translated locally, far from the cell body. Recent studies suggest...
A framework to detect hallucinations in the text generated by LLMs
Large language models (LLMs) are advanced AI-based dialogue systems that can answer user queries and generate convincing texts following human instructions. After the advent of ChatGPT, the highly...

The BREAD Collaboration is searching for dark photons using a coaxial dish antenna
Approximately 80% of the matter in the universe is predicted to be so-called "dark matter," which does not emit, reflect, or absorb light and thus cannot be directly detected using conventional...
Generating graph states of atomic ensembles via photon-mediated entanglement
Graph states, a class of entangled quantum states that can be represented by graphs, have been the topic of numerous recent physics studies, due to their intriguing properties. These unique...
A miniature wireless robot that can effectively move through tubular structures
Robots have already proved to be promising tools to complete complex and demanding maintenance tasks. While engineers have developed a wide range of robots that could help to maintain and repair...
Exploring the origins of excitatory and inhibitory neuronal tuning in the postsubiculum
Brain cells can be broadly divided into two categories: inhibitory and excitatory neurons. Excitatory neurons are cells that support the generation of electrical impulses in postsynaptic neurons,...
A framework to enhance the safety of text-to-image generation networks
The emergence of machine learning algorithms that can generate texts and images following human users' instructions has opened new possibilities for the low-cost creation of specific content. A...
An affordable miniature car-like robot to test control and estimation algorithms
The development and testing of algorithms for robotics applications typically requires evaluations in both simulated and physical environments. Some algorithms, however, can be difficult to deploy...
