The BREAD Collaboration is searching for dark photons using a coaxial dish antenna

Posted by in category: cosmology

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 experimental techniques.

NASA plasma propulsion project promises Mars in a flash

Posted by in categories: energy, space

As well as slashing travel time to neighboring planets, PPR promises to support the transport of much heavier spacecraft, which can benefit from shielding against galactic cosmic rays, allowing space travelers to spend longer periods outside Earth’s protective dome.

The latter will be the subject of the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) study, which is focusing on a large, heavily shielded ship to transport humans and cargo to Mars for the development of a Martian base.

“The main topics included: assessing the neutronics of the system, designing the spacecraft, power system, and necessary subsystems, analyzing the magnetic nozzle capabilities, and determining trajectories and benefits of the PPR. Phase II will build upon these assessments and further the PPR concept,” NASA said.

Dynamic two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks

Posted by in category: materials

Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D COFs) enable the construction of bespoke functional materials, but designing dynamic 2D COFs is challenging. Now it has been shown that perylene-diimide-based COFs can open and close their pores upon uptake or removal of guests, while fully retaining their crystalline long-range order. Moreover, the variable COF geometry enables stimuli-responsive optoelectronic properties.

Einstein Challenged: Exploring the “Cosmic Glitch” in Gravity

Posted by in categories: physics, space

Moving one step closer to understanding mysteries at the edge of the universe.

A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia have discovered a potential “cosmic glitch” in the universe’s gravity, explaining its strange behavior on a cosmic scale.

For the last 100 years, physicists have relied upon Albert Einstein’s theory of “general relativity” to explain how gravity works throughout the universe. General relativity, proven accurate by countless tests and observations, suggests that gravity impacts not simply three physical dimensions but also a fourth dimension: time.

Samsung to Introduce 3rd Generation Gate-All-Around 2nm Transistors in 2025

Posted by in category: computing

The company is already the industry leader when it comes to gate-all-around transistors, but so far it’s yet to really make a dent in TSMC’s market share.
