MicroPython Comes To Arduino… Experimentally
We’ve been keeping our eyes on MicroPython for some time now. It would seem that there is quite a draw for many users due to how incredibly easy MicroPython can be for beginners. The folks at Arduino seem to be interested in this as well. They.....»»
Arduino Previews New DIY Kit at Maker Faire Rome
Today at Maker Faire Rome, Masimo Banzi took to the stage to show off their newest concept, the DIY Kit. This isn’t a full product release, so we don’t have all the deets yet, such as price or availability. What we do know, is that it is a kit t.....»»
Einstein wins again: Space satellite confirms weak equivalence principle
MICROSCOPE experiment measured accelerations of free-falling objects in space. Enlarge / There’s a long tradition of experimentally testing the weak equivalence principle—the basis of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity......»»
Simulator illuminates the search for life around the Milky Way"s most common stars
Italian researchers have demonstrated experimentally for the first time that microorganisms can photosynthesize using the infrared-dominated light emitted by the most common type of star in the Milky Way. The results from the Star Light Simulator, pr.....»»
Arduino IDE 2.0 Goes Gold
When the project that would eventually be named Arduino started evolving in the early 2000s, their goal was to make microcontrollers more accessible to non-engineers. So in addition to an easy-to-use dev board, they needed something more approachabl.....»»
Demonstrating a 1-Pbps orbital angular momentum fiber-optic transmission
Space-division multiplexing (SDM) technology has a promising role in overcoming the so-called "capacity crunch" of existing single mode fiber (SMF). Now, researchers in China experimentally demonstrated an orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) mode based SD.....»»
Calculating the "fingerprints" of molecules with artificial intelligence
With conventional methods, it is extremely time-consuming to calculate the spectral fingerprint of larger molecules. But this is a prerequisite for correctly interpreting experimentally obtained data. Now, a team at HZB has achieved very good results.....»»
How cells correct errors under time pressure
How does a cell balance risk and speed when dividing? EPFL scientists have developed and experimentally tested the first mathematical theory that describes the cell's best strategy for dividing safely and efficiently......»»
Assessing physical realism experimentally in a quantum-regulated device
In a new report now published in Nature Communications Physics, Pedro R. Dieguez and an international team of scientists in quantum technologies, functional quantum systems and quantum physics, developed a new framework of operational criterion for p.....»»
Researchers develop quantum gate enabling investigation of optimization problems
The development of quantum computers is being pursued worldwide, and there are various concepts of how computing using the properties of the quantum world can be implemented. Many of these have already advanced experimentally into areas that can no l.....»»
Raspberry Pi just turned 10. Celebrate by learning how it works.
TL;DR: As of March 20, you can get The 2022 Complete Raspberry Pi & Arduino Developer Bundle — worth $1,800 — for just $39.99, which saves you 97%.So, you’ve got a Raspberry Pi. Now what? Learning to program it isn’t as e.....»»
Unraveling tautomeric mixtures
A team at HZB has developed a method of experimentally unraveling tautomeric mixtures. Based on resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) at BESSY II, not only proportions of the tautomers can be deduced, but the properties of each individual tautom.....»»
Physicists report on "quantum boomerang" effect in disordered systems
Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have become the first to experimentally observe a quirky behavior of the quantum world: a "quantum boomerang" effect that occurs when particles in a disordered system are kicked out of their locations. Instead of landin.....»»
Distinct structural domains in MUNC long non-coding RNA regulate gene expression
In a paper in Cell Reports, Anindya Dutta, M.D., Ph.D., and colleagues detail the first structure-function study of a long non-coding RNA, or lncRNA, called MUNC lncRNA. Their findings point out the importance of experimentally determining the struct.....»»
Teams collaborate to reach a better understanding of symmetry breaking
In an international collaboration, AMOLF researchers have theoretically described and experimentally observed spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) in two laser-driven coupled optical cavities. SSB is a universal phenomenon that occurs in many physical.....»»
Scientists develop "exceptional" surface to explore exotic physics
By demonstrating exceptional control of an open optical system, an international research team has provided a path to experimentally measure and test exotic phenomena and gain insights into new physics with exquisite sensitivity......»»
Neural network quantifies P-integral in solids
Researchers have recently proposed the concept of ionization integral (P-int) to quantify the strength of plasma effect. This is the first time that nonlinear effects have been quantified experimentally. Relevant results were published in Physical Re.....»»
Natural antiparasitic processes hinder anisakis infection in fish
The publishing of several articles that reveal the vulnerability of farmed fish to the anisakis parasite has prompted the research group in Marine Zoology of the University of Valencia to experimentally assess the infective susceptibility of fish. Th.....»»
"Crazy" light emitters: Physicists see an unusual quantum phenomenon
A highly unusual movement of light emitting particles in atomically-thin semiconductors was experimentally confirmed by scientists from the Würzburg–Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat–Complexity and Topology in Quantum Matter. Electronic quas.....»»
