Mathematicians Transcend a Geometric Theory of Motion
More than 30 years ago, Andreas Floer changed geometry. Now, two mathematicians have finally figured out how to extend his revolutionary perspective......»»

New computer code for mechanics of tissues and cells in three dimensions
Biological materials are made of individual components, including tiny motors that convert fuel into motion. This creates patterns of movement, and the material shapes itself with coherent flows by constant consumption of energy. Such continuously dr.....»»

Novel measurement technique for fluid-mixing phenomena using selective color imaging method
A novel measurement technique has been developed to visualize the fluid flow and distribution within two droplets levitated and coalesced in space using fluorescence-emitting particles. This technique enabled the estimation of fluid motion within eac.....»»
The universe is expanding faster than theory predicts—physicists are trying to explain the mismatch
Astronomers have known for decades that the universe is expanding. When they use telescopes to observe faraway galaxies, they see that these galaxies are moving away from Earth......»»
"Bouncing" comets could deliver building blocks for life to exoplanets
How did the molecular building blocks for life end up on Earth? One long-standing theory is that they could have been delivered by comets. Now, researchers from the University of Cambridge have shown how comets could deposit similar building blocks t.....»»
New theory links topology and finance
In a new study published in The Journal of Finance and Data Science, a researcher from the International School of Business at HAN University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands introduced the topological tail dependence theory—a new methodology.....»»
Boosting profits for technology holders and licensees through game theory
Patents and licenses safeguard the intellectual property of the rights holder from being copied or sold without their permission. Companies and individuals who want to make use of the patented or licensed invention must make a formal request to do so.....»»
How to think about a four-dimensional universe
In Einstein's famous theory of relativity the concepts of immutable space and time aren't just put aside, they're explicitly and emphatically rejected. Space and time are now woven into a coexisting fabric. That is to say, we truly live in a four-dim.....»»
A new theory linking evolution and physics has scientists baffled—but is it solving a problem that doesn"t exist?
In October, a paper titled "Assembly theory explains and quantifies selection and evolution" appeared in the journal Nature. The authors—a team led by Lee Cronin at the University of Glasgow and Sara Walker at Arizona State University—claim their.....»»
Is anything absolute with relativity?
The theory of relativity is at once simple and elegant but also maddeningly nonintuitive. There's no need to get into the full guts and glory of that theory here, but there is one feature of Einstein's work that takes center stage, and would eventual.....»»
How Einstein"s daydream of light created relativity
Einstein's fascination with light, considered quirky at the time, would lead him down the path to a brand new theory of physics......»»
ACE/MPA Target VivaTV, StreamTape & VidSrc: A Peek Under the Hood

Model shows how fish synchronize tail fins to save energy
Researchers from Tohoku University have developed a model that simulates the motion of fish tail fins. The model uncovers the underlying mechanisms behind a commonly observed phenomenon in fish: how they synchronize the movement of their tail fins, r.....»»
Civilizations could use gravitational lenses to transmit power from star to star
In 1916, famed theoretical physicist Albert Einstein put the finishing touches on his theory of general relativity, a geometric theory for how gravity alters the curvature of spacetime. The revolutionary theory remains foundational to our models of h.....»»
Review: Eve Motion, the best HomeKit motion sensor
After embracing HomeKit in a big way starting in 2022, and testing several motion sensors in the intervening months, my recommendation for best HomeKit motion sensor is the . The Eve Motion sensor connects directly to the Home app on your iPhone,.....»»
Physics has long failed to explain life—but researchers are testing a groundbreaking new theory in the lab
Modern physics can explain everything from the spin of the tiniest particle to the behavior of entire galaxy clusters. But it can't explain life. There's simply no formula to explain the difference between a living lump of matter and a dead one. Life.....»»
