New simulations from Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory suggest that deliberately engineering plasma rotation inside tokamak fusion reactors could dramatically reduce the heat loads that destroy ...

The shape of the cosmos depends on a balance of two competing forces: the pull of gravity and the expansion driven by dark ...

On a much smaller scale, think of it like an ice cube dropped in a glass of water. Then, scaling thing up, let’s take a large cargo ship, cruising through a narrow riverway. The result is ...

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

The material exhibits an exceptionally low lattice thermal conductivity of ~0.18 W/m·K, placing it among the lowest known for crystalline solids.

Platforms like Alters AI leverage use data and intelligent models to create content tailored to individual preferences ...

The best perk of Alberto Maspero’s job, he says, is the view from his window. Situated on a hill above the ancient port city of Trieste, Italy, his office at the International School for Advanced ...

Open-source, 1D quantum computing elastic wave equation solver. Figure 1: Calculated wave field of classical numerical solvers and the quantum computer IBM Brisbane for different evolution times in a ...

Abstract: Numerical methods based on finite differences for solving the wave equation are prone to various errors, a challenge that also applies to the semi-discrete case of a recently proposed ...
