Rohit Velankar, a senior at Fox Chapel Area High School, found himself pondering the rhythmic sound of juice pouring into a glass. This simple everyday task sparked a curiosity in him about whether a container’s elasticity could influence the way its contents drained. Initially, Rohit’s inquiry was meant for a science fair project, but it

In a groundbreaking study led by Professor Sheng Zhigao at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the phenomenon of strong nonlinear magnetic second harmonic generation (MSHG) induced by ferromagnetic order in monolayer CrPS4 was observed for the first time. This discovery holds significant implications for the field of optoelectronics.
Neutrinos, the elusive particles that are the second most abundant in the universe, have long puzzled scientists due to their unique properties. Researchers at the Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have recently achieved a significant milestone by detecting the first neutrino interactions. This breakthrough marks the culmination of years of planning,
A groundbreaking discovery in the field of spintronics has been made by the Nanodevices group at CIC nanoGUNE, in collaboration with research staff from the Charles University of Prague and the CFM center in San Sebastian. This new complex material, designed by the research team, has opened up a realm of possibilities for the development
Chained Together, a cooperative game that challenges players to escape hell, has now introduced a map editor feature, allowing players to design their own devilishly difficult obstacle courses. With the ability to place moving platforms, swinging axes, pulsating spikes, and other deadly elements, players can create the ultimate test of skill and patience for themselves
Recently, Taylor Swift made headlines when she announced her support for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election. The catalyst for her public declaration was the circulation of AI-generated images falsely endorsing Donald Trump on his campaign site. This incident shed light on the dangers of AI and the spread of misinformation, prompting
Exploring the field of non-Hermitian systems, researchers have recently made groundbreaking progress by observing a non-Hermitian edge burst in quantum dynamics. This discovery sheds light on the unique behavior of systems characterized by dissipation, interactions with the environment, or gain-and-loss mechanisms. The study showcases the significance of understanding non-Hermitian systems and their potential applications in
The iPhone 16’s “Camera Control” is not just any button – it represents a significant shift in how Apple approaches cameras, AI, and the overall user experience. While it may seem like a simple addition, the implications of this button go far beyond just being a physical control. The latest iPhone 16 lineup introduces a
The U.K. is facing a critical issue when it comes to commercializing its technology businesses on a global scale. Warren East, former CEO of British chip design firm Arm, highlighted the lackluster growth and poor rates of GDP per head in the U.K. as a source of national embarrassment. Despite the promising innovative technology being
When looking at the recent incident where Elon Musk shared a fake image of Kamala Harris dressed as a communist dictator, it highlights the limitations of AI in accurately depicting individuals. The image, created with X’s Grok tool, barely resembled the vice president, leading many to mock the attempt. Users pointed out that the AI-generated
