Scientists pinpoint the brain center of the male libido

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience, sex

Scientists may have successfully spotted the brain center for the male libido responsible for sexual interest and mating in mouse models. The discovery may lead to improved drugs for sexual function.

This is according to a report by Medical Xpress published on Friday.

Senior researcher Dr. Nirao Shah, a professor of psychiatry and neurobiology at Stanford University School of Medicine, in California, said in the article that the newly-discovered region is responsible for recognizing the sex of other mice.

Muons are still behaving oddly, which could break particle physics

Posted by in category: particle physics

An experiment at Fermilab in the US suggests that muons rotate faster than expected, which would be a problem for the standard model of particle physics.

Quantum Echoes: A Revolutionary Method to Store Information as Sound Waves

Posted by in categories: computing, quantum physics

Quantum computing, just like traditional computing, requires a method to store the information it uses and processes. In the computer you’re using right now, information—whether it be photos of your dog, a reminder about a friend’s birthday, or the words you’re typing into your browser’s address bar—must be stored somewhere. Quantum computing, a relatively new field, is still exploring where and how to store quantum information.

DARPA Aims to Develop New Synthetic Quantum Materials That Could Radically Improve Quantum Computing

Posted by in categories: computing, nanotechnology, quantum physics

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has announced a new program it says will develop synthetic metamaterials that could lead to breakthroughs in quantum computing and information science.

Called the Synthetic Quantum Nanostructures program, or SynQuaNon, the new DARPA initiative “aims to address this challenge with a fundamental science effort that seeks to develop synthetic metamaterials to enable enhanced functionalities and novel capabilities,” read a statement issued by the agency this week.

The program aims to produce a range of new quantum materials that will have a variety of uses in quantum computing and other information science applications.
