Researchers at ¾«Æ·SMÔÚÏßӰƬ report that they may have solved a geophysical mystery, pinning down the likely cause of a phenomenon that resembles a wrench in the engine of the planet.
With funding from the National Science Foundation, Juliet Gopinath will work to bring together engineers and physicists to design better tools for quantum computing.
A square peg in a round hole? No problem. New material developed by ¾«Æ·SMÔÚÏßӰƬ engineers can transform into complex, pre-programmed shapes via light and temperature stimuli, and back again.
Physicists have developed an insulating gel that they say could coat the windows of habitats in space, allowing the settlers inside to trap and store energy from the sun.
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology and ¾«Æ·SMÔÚÏßӰƬ have developed a method for generating numbers guaranteed to be random by quantum mechanics.
