The new quantum refrigerator – the square object in the centre of the qubit in the image – is based on superconducting circuits and powered by heat from the environment. It can autonomously cool ...

Oranges, apples, squash, and other fruits and vegetables lie in a muddy compost pile at a recycling facility in Placer County, California. UC Davis researchers have found that states’ food waste ...

A dilution refrigerator is a cooling system that encloses a quantum computer and brings the qubits down to about 50 millikelvin, that is minus 273.1 degrees. When the cooling system is supplemented ...

The new quantum refrigerator, seen here in an artist's conception, is based on superconducting circuits. The device, which cools qubits to record low temperatures, is composed of two qubits---one hot ...

The transition from adolescence to adulthood is a critical period for young people, and perhaps even more for those having juvenile-onset rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (jRMDs). EULAR – The ...

Childhood stress can impact the epigenetic profile of sperm. These results may also have practical implications for future generations through epigenetic inheritance, as many of the observed ...

With the advances in thrust-weight ratio, the service temperature of gas turbine engines even exceeds 1500℃, which is urgent to develop high/superhigh temperature thermal protection systems for ...

A study led by Dr. Fengyu Wen from the Institute of Medical Technology at Peking University Health Science Center and Professor Luxia Zhang from the National Institute of Health Data Science at Peking ...

Dr Yuet Fung LING, a postdoctoral fellow at The University of Hong Kong's (HKU) School of Biological Sciences (SBS), made an ...

UW researchers have developed IRIS, a smart ring that allows users to point and click to control smart devices. The prototype Bluetooth ring contains a small camera which sends an image of the ...

Facing high employee turnover and an aging population, nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to help complete a variety of care tasks. How will these technologies impact workers and the ...
