A model probing the connection between entangled particles and wormholes in general relativity
Quantum entanglement is a physical process through which pairs of particles become connected and remain so even when separated by vast distances. This fascinating phenomenon has been the focus of...
A framework for risk-aware robot navigation in unknown environments
A scalable approach to fabricate ultrathin protonic ceramic electrochemical cells with lower operating temperatures
Protonic ceramic electrochemical cells (PCECs) are emerging energy technologies containing electrolytes based on proton-conducting oxides and oxygen-ion conductors. These devices could contribute to...
Study sheds light on the neural underpinning of subjective odor perceptions
Different people can have varying perceptions of the same scents and odors, for instance perceiving the same perfume as "fruity" or "musky." Studies have suggested that the ways in which the same...
Researchers uncover unconventional charge carriers in a triangular-lattice Mott insulator
Mott insulators are a peculiar class of materials with structures that should theoretically conduct electricity, but that are instead insulators. These materials contain strongly correlated...
Study estimates the energy costs of information processing in biological systems
The behaviors, physiology and existence of living organisms is supported by countless biological processes, which entail the communication between cells and other molecular components. These...
Exploring the activity patterns of distinct hippocampal interneuron types during odor-guided spatial navigation
The hippocampus is a crucial brain region known to support the processing and storage of higher-level information, in the form of memories. In addition to allowing humans and animals to recall...
Team develops new gold nanocluster-rich titanium dioxide photocatalyst for the oxidative coupling of methane
The hydrocarbon methane is highly abundant on Earth, yet its release is now known to contribute to surges in temperature and climate change. In recent years, researchers have been trying to devise...
A reliable and wearable system to recognize finger movements in real-time
Devices that can detect, track and decode movements in their surroundings can have countless valuable applications in fields ranging from robotics to health care, the entertainment industry, sports,...
An embodied conversational agent that merges large language models and domain-specific assistance
Large language models (LLMs) are advanced deep learning techniques that can interact with humans in real-time and respond to prompts about a wide range of topics. These models have gained much...
