Working together across a range of tasks, called collective intelligence (CI), varies significantly between teams. The level of collective attention a team develops influences its level of CI. A new study examined the factors that enhanced…

The race to 6G requires the development of suitable magnetic materials. Scientists from Osaka Metropolitan University detected an unprecedented collective resonance at high frequencies in a magnetic superstructure called a chiral spin…

For electrons moving along a quantum wire, researchers in Cambridge and Frankfurt have discovered that there are two ‘lanes’, and electrons can take both simultaneously! The flow of electrons carries the current in a wire. If the wire is…

A team of astronomers from the University of Arizona created a detailed, 3-D image of a dying hypergiant star. They traced the distribution, directions, and velocities of various molecules surrounding a red hypergiant star known as VY Canis…

We use electro-optic modulators for everything from sensing to metrology and telecommunications. Research tends to focus on applications that take place on chips or within fiber optic systems. But what about optical applications outside the…

Tampering with hardware used to read out information is a huge security risk. Researchers in Bochum developed a method to detect such manipulations—monitoring the systems with radio waves that react to the slightest changes in the ambient…

Today, the Faraday Institution awarded 16 small, fast-paced, focused projects in areas not covered within its existing battery research portfolio. The projects address anodes, electrolytes, cathodes, next-generation technologies,…

Researchers from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have discovered how subtle structural changes in strontium titanate, a metal oxide semiconductor, alter the material’s electrical resistance and affect superconducting properties.…

Classical machine learning is reaching its limits, and scientists must develop new models to better understand and use molecular data. The DFG's Priority Program, "Use and Development of Machine Learning for Molecular Applications –…

Engineers face complex design challenges daily. According to Antti Oulasvirta, professor of electrical engineering at Aalto University and the Finnish Center for Artificial Intelligence, designers rely on intuition, experience, and trial…
