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 Announces The Uno Mini Limited Edition
What an incredible journey the Arduino concept has been. Remember when we proclaimed that The Arduino is Here To Stay after they sold 10 thousand units? Well, now they’ve sold over 10 million, and they want to celebrate. They are announcing th.....»»
Scientists experimentally reconstruct Bloch wavefunction for the first time
Lightspeed is the fastest velocity in the universe. Except when it isn't. Anyone who's seen a prism split white light into a rainbow has witnessed how material properties can influence the behavior of quantum objects: in this case, the speed at which.....»»
The crystal symmetry dependence of high-harmonic generation in monolayer dichalcogenides
The light-matter interaction has long been one of the most advanced areas in physics. Recently, it has attracted more attentions due to the rapid development of ultra-short lasers, and a variety of ultra-fast phenomena have been experimentally achiev.....»»
Core Memory: Why We Used 60-Year-Old Tech in an Arduino Shield
About ten years ago, we designed and made an Arduino shield implementing “core memory,” a technology that was sixty years old even then. Our shield stored 32 individual 1s or 0s using magnetic fields going either clockwise or anticlockwise aroun.....»»
New cerium superhydrides become stepping stones to "Goldilocks" superconductors
Researchers from Skoltech and their colleagues from China have experimentally shown superconductivity in cerium superhydrides CeH9 and CeH10, pointing the way to lower-pressure and potentially room-temperature superconductors. The paper was published.....»»
Scientists use radiography to understand the evolution of liquid and solid microjets
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) scientists have experimentally tested the predictions of a 2020 study that computationally investigated the effect of melting on shock driven metal microjets. That earlier work predicted that melting the.....»»
Scientists discover two species of few-electron bubbles in superfluid helium
In a new study, scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have experimentally shown the existence of two species of few electron bubbles (FEBs) in superfluid helium for the first time. These FEBs can serve as a useful model to study how th.....»»
Salps fertilize the Southern Ocean more effectively than krill
Experts at the Alfred Wegener Institute have, for the first time, experimentally measured the release of iron from the fecal pellets of krill and salps under natural conditions and tested its bioavailability using a natural community of microalgae in.....»»
Unusual semimetal shows evidence of unique surface conduction states
Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology experimentally verify the existence of exotic surface conduction states in topological semimetals (TSMs), materials that lie at the boundary between conductors and insulators, by performing voltage scans of.....»»
Maker Classes in May: Storytelling with Servos, Citizen Science, and Upcycling Projects
Maker Campus continues to grow as new classes are springing up this May. This month, you’ll be able to learn how to tell stories with servos (includes a tour of Jorvon Moss’s workshop), how to build your own citizen science devices with Arduino,.....»»
Is the Standard Model of Physics Now Broken?
The discrepancy between the theoretical prediction and the experimentally determined value of the muon's magnetic moment has become slightly stronger with a new result from Fermilab. But what does it... -- Read more on ScientificAmerican.com.....»»
Curved plasmonic fluxes reveal new way to practical light manipulation within nanoscal
Scientists from Tomsk Polytechnic University jointly with Russian colleagues and researchers from Technical University of Denmark the first time have experimentally proved the existence of a two-dimensional (2D) curved flux of plasmonic quasiparticle.....»»
Watchy: The Hackable $50 Smartwatch
This Arduino-compatible watch uses an ESP32 microcontroller and an e-ink display Illustration: James Provost Like many of you, for the past year I’ve led a pretty static existence living and working in my apartment. B.....»»

Chimpanzees unite against a common enemy
In the face of threats from other groups, humans become more cohesive and cooperative with their own, an association that Charles Darwin suggested could be an evolved capacity. Now a research group at Kyoto University has demonstrated experimentally.....»»
The quantum advantage: a novel demonstration
Is a quantum machine really more efficient than a conventional machine for performing calculations? Demonstrating this 'advantage' experimentally is particularly complex and a major research challenge around the world......»»
Raspberry Pi Announces $4 “Pico” Microcontroller with Custom Chip, Collaborations with Arduino, Adafruit, and Others
Raspberry Pi enters the microcontroller world with its first custom-chip board, and they're bringing in a number of other companies to use it too. Read more on MAKE The post Raspberry Pi Announces $4 “Pico” Microcontroller with Custom Chi.....»»
Arduino vs. Raspberry Pi
Arduino vs. Raspberry Pi: How do they stack up? We break down both these DIY stalwarts with examples and tips......»»
Scientists synthesize an unusual superconducting barium superhydride
A group of scientists from Russia, China and the United States predicted and then experimentally obtained barium superhydrides, new unusual superconductors. The study was published in Nature Communications......»»
Nanomaterial theory describes strongly correlated electrons in quantum dots
