PHYSICS & MATH 09.25.2019 09:13 AM

The level of popularity that different subjects have among students at a particular moment allows estimating the perspective of career growth and demand. Branches popular now mean the labor market needs precise specialists. Nevertheless, a large number of students willing to study the subject also points to a high level of competence there in future.

The Problem with 42 Has Been Solved, and It Only Took 1 Million Hours

09.10.2019 08:23 AM

A simple premise, an extremely difficult problem. x3+y3+z3=k. K is each of the numbers from 1 to 100; the question is, what are x, y and z?

Repeating Radio Signals from Space Have Been Detected

09.10.2019 08:21 AM

The signal has travelled around 3 billion light-years across the Universe to reach us. Frequent radio bursts, or FRBs, are somewhat of an intergalactic mystery.

The "Oscars of Science" Has Announced Its Winners for 2020

09.09.2019 08:25 AM

This year’s winners are credited with discoveries that address important and compelling scientific questions – from “What does a black hole look like?” to “Why do chilis taste hot?” and “What are the causes of neurodegenerative disease?”

Nanoscale Measurements from Optical Rulers Could Help in Manufacturing and Quality Control

09.09.2019 08:22 AM

The optical method of measurement employs the principle of superoscillation to measure minute distances that would stand helpful in the electronics industry.

Two Separate Researches Present Engineered Ship Cloaking Devices

08.19.2019 08:19 AM

The researchers propose two approaches to prevent drag force on objects in water. In the world of physics, invisibility cloaks are not necessarily just devices that make objects invisible to the naked eye.

Quantifying Sound Particles Through a Quantum Microphone

08.09.2019 05:34 AM

Scientists develop a method in measuring sound particles Imagine quantifying sound rather than light. This was done successfully by physicists from Stanford Univesrity who measured phonons, or individual sound particles, through a quantum microphone.

Basic Logic Help Monkeys in Decision Making, According to Study

08.04.2019 04:59 AM

Basic logic, and not the idea of reward, has been observed by monkeys when identifying order of items in a list.

Superlubricity Simulation in the Laboratory, Believed to Cut Down Energy Loss

08.04.2019 04:58 AM

Scientist study materials with the least amount of friction at the atomic level. It is common knowledge that friction is everywhere, even in the places where we least take note of it.

You Can’t Just Kill This Robot Cockroach With a Step

08.04.2019 04:58 AM

Mobile and robust, this tiny robot is the next step to environmental exploration and disaster relief.

Superwalkers: A new innovation in the field of quantum mechanics and classical physics

08.01.2019 10:30 AM

Scientists conduct in-depth study regarding the characteristics of superwalkers A team of researchers led by Rahil Valani and Anja Slim at Monash University and Tapio Simula at Swinburne University of Technology introduced another information about the superwalkers which opens a new door in the field of research focused on quantum mechanics and classical physics.

Physicists Copy Some Properties of the Sun in a Ball

08.01.2019 10:30 AM

Plasma physicists copy the solar wind from the sun in a 3-meter diameter aluminum ball. In 1958, solar physicist Eugene Parker predicted the existence of the solar wind, which is a constant stream of charged particles ejected by the sun from its corona.

Permanent Liquid Magnets to Take Stage in the Lab

07.23.2019 09:12 AM

Scientists have concocted permanent liquid magnets that may be used in assisted drug delivery in the human body and in other applications.

Peptides Can Form Without Amino Acids

07.16.2019 11:12 AM

The results of the study may also be useful to the field of synthetic chemistry, as amide bond formation is essential for many commercially critical synthetic materials, bioactive compounds, and pharmaceuticals

Tracking the Separation of Atoms with Lasers

07.15.2019 08:49 AM

All paths lead to the electron settling on either iodine or bromine and the two atoms flying apart. Ultraviolet light fragments the links between atoms within the DNA of skin cells, undoubtedly inflicting cancer on the human body.
