Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) provides valuable insights into the physical processes within batteries – but how can these measurements directly inform physics-based models? In this ...

Regeneration is a wild concept. Young minds often explode when learning that some amazing starfish can grow new arms if one gets chomped off; the details of why and how come later. Similarly, many of ...

In this Python physics tutorial, I show you how to draw the celestial sphere using Web VPython! Explore the stars, constellations, and the fundamental concepts behind the celestial coordinate system ...

In April, about 200 neighbors packed a fieldhouse in Spring, a suburb north of Houston, to protest a proposed development in their flood-prone community. Ryko Development, a Houston-based firm, wanted ...

Some cars invite you in with chrome and comfort. The Model T invites you into a time machine, hands you three pedals that mean the wrong things, and politely asks you to learn 1910s. Then it coughs, ...

If you like the premise of AI doing, well something, in your rig, but don't much fancy feeding your information back to a data set for future use, a local LLM is likely the answer to your prayers.

For the first time, physicists have directly measured the temperature of extremely hot gold particles using a giant X-ray laser—a breakthrough with major implications for engineering spacecraft or ...

Shekar Natarajan is the founder and CEO of Orchestro.AI. This example is one of many that demonstrates how supply chains are complex, interconnected, interdependent systems. They follow the ...

French AI lab Mistral is getting into the reasoning AI model game. On Tuesday morning, Mistral announced Magistral, its first family of reasoning models. Like other reasoning models — e.g. OpenAI’s o3 ...

LMArena, a popular benchmark for large language models, has been accused of giving preferential treatment to AIs made by big tech firms, potentially enabling them to game their results. When you ...

If photons possess more quantum states than expected, it would overhaul our understanding of all particle physics – and now physicists have identified a way to test this radical idea in an experiment.
