Ancient stars could make elements with atomic masses greater than 260
The first stars of the universe were monstrous beasts. Comprised only of hydrogen and helium, they could be 300 times more massive than the sun. Within them, the first of the heavier elements were formed, then cast off into the cosmos at the end of t.....»»
Ancient stars could make elements with more than 260 protons
The first stars of the universe were monstrous beasts. Comprised only of hydrogen and helium, they could be 300 times more massive than the sun. Within them, the first of the heavier elements were formed, then cast off into the cosmos at the end of t.....»»
Fermi mission creates 14-year time-lapse of the gamma-ray sky
The cosmos comes alive in an all-sky time-lapse movie made from 14 years of data acquired by NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Our sun, occasionally flaring into prominence, serenely traces a path through the sky against the backdrop of high-en.....»»
Finding a better way to use cameras to reduce crime
Areas of a middle Georgia city have experienced a 20% reduction in crime after deploying a system of mobile cameras guided by an algorithm developed by Georgia Tech researchers......»»
AI algorithm keeps a mile-long particle accelerator healthy
Particle accelerators are among the most intricate scientific instruments ever devised. With millions of sensors and thousands of subsystems at risk of failure, these accelerators' human operators must continuously monitor performance and comb throug.....»»
Is the Facebook algorithm bypass a scam? Or is it a hack?
No, you can't bypass the Facebook algorithm by copying and pasting a post. Not then, not now. It's just not how things work......»»

New automatic algorithm unveils key insights into leaf orientation and plant productivity
Maize (Zea mays L.), the most globally produced cereal, owes its enhanced productivity to genetic, agronomic, and climatic factors, with cultivars adapted to higher density playing a crucial role. Recent research has focused on maize's architectural.....»»
The universe can"t hide behind the Zone of Avoidance any longer
Our view of the cosmos is always limited by the fact we are located within a galaxy filled with interstellar gas and dust. This is most dramatically seen in the central region of the Milky Way, which is filled with so much dust that it is sometimes r.....»»
DEAL: Grab Anker’s Nebula Cosmos Laser Projector
You might want to go an extra step further and invest in a laser home projector setup, which might prove to be a nice addition to your home entertainment kit. The post DEAL: Grab Anker’s Nebula Cosmos Laser Projector appeared first on Phandroid.....»»
The echoes from inflation could still be shaking the cosmos today
In the very early universe, physics were weird. A process known as inflation, during which the universe went from a single infinitesimal point to everything we see today, was one such instance of those weird physics. Now, scientists from the Chinese.....»»
Improved algorithm enhances precision of pressure sensors for wild bird tracking
Researchers from the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have proposed an improved algorithm called Dynamic Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization (DQPSO) to improve the accuracy and reliability of pre.....»»
