Qubits put new spin on magnetism: Boosting applications of quantum computers
Research using a quantum computer as the physical platform for quantum experiments has found a way to design and characterize tailor-made magnetic objects using quantum bits, or qubits. That opens up a new approach to develop new materials and robust.....»»
Photoshop Web beta hands on: Nifty, but no match for the competition
Currently free, the Photoshop on the Web beta is an impressive feat — but seems aimed at casual users who need quick fixes and a simpler toolset, at least for now.In one of Adobe's more ambitious experiments, its engineers have been working on web-.....»»
A framework to self-test all entangled states using quantum networks
Self-testing is a promising method to infer the physics underlying specific quantum experiments using only collected measurements. While this method can be used to examine bipartite pure entangled states, so far it could only be applied to limited ki.....»»

Breaks taken during psych experiments lower participants’ moods
The lowered mood could throw off the results of studies with rest breaks. Enlarge (credit: Klaus Vedfelt) An unfortunate feature of science is that two experiments that are ostensibly looking at the same thing can produc.....»»
Steel was already being used in Europe 2,900 years ago, shows study
A study by an international and interdisciplinary team headed by University of Freiburg archaeologist Dr. Ralph Araque Gonzalez from the Faculty of Humanities has proven that steel tools were already in use in Europe around 2,900 years ago......»»
Researchers find a path toward hepatitis E treatment by disentangling its knotty structure
In a paper published Feb. 28 in the journal eLife, a team of researchers headed by Princeton's Alexander Ploss settle a debate about a key protein in hepatitis E (Hep E), which could open the way to developing treatments for a tiny virus that poses a.....»»
Unleash The Amateurs: Lessons From The Early Days Of Radio
Guglielmo Marconi’s early experiments in wireless communication, particularly his radio transmission during the 1899 America’s Cup yacht races, had sparked broad interest in the nascent technology. The press was closely covering these devel.....»»

Study finds the "squishy" outer shell of Venus may be resurfacing the planet
Earth and Venus are rocky planets of about the same size and rock chemistry, so they should be losing their internal heat to space at about the same rate. How Earth loses its heat is well known, but Venus's heat flow mechanism has been a mystery. A s.....»»
