Trio wins Nobel Prize(Physics) for the year 2021
The Nobel Prize for Physics 2021 will be split in half, with one half going to Klaus Hasselmann and Syukuro Manabe for physical modeling of the climate of the Earth, quantifying variability, as well as robustly trying to predict global warming, and another half going to Giorgio Parisi for discovering the interplay of fluctuations and disorders in physics.

Discovery Of Double Charm Tetraquark ‘The impossible particle’
Ivan Polyakov revealed this spring at a meeting of Syracuse University’s quark physics group that he had discovered the fingerprints of a semi-mythical particle. Polyakov left to confirm his data analysis from the Large Hadron Collider beauty (LHCb) experiment, which the Syracuse group is a part of. The proof was sufficient. It demonstrated that, contrary […]
The new optical transistor accelerates computation by up to 1000 times while using the least amount of switching energy possible
A multinational team of researchers led by Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech), a private institute in Moscow, Russia, and International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), a leading American computer manufacturer with a sizable market share both internationally and domestically produced a highly energy-efficient optical switch that might substitute electrical transistors for a new generation […]
Neuroscientists study the neural structure of recurrent networks in the brain
Wasim Raza The University of Wyoming researchers picked each other’s brains, so to speak. They examined the importance of the frontal cortex, which is responsible for expressive language, judgment, and voluntary movement. They discovered that these functions are carried out by recurrent neural networks, or RNNs. Qian-Quan Sun, a UW professor of zoology and physiology, […]
Altos Labs’ Anti-Aging Biotech Project is now funded by Jeff Bezos
Aman Kumar As you increase the number of rotations around the sun, fine lines, wrinkling of skins, grey hair, and creaking bones may begin to annoy you. Scientists are currently attempting to address one of biotechnology’s most pressing questions: how might biotechnology be used to make humans younger? Altos Labs wants to convert adult cells to […]
The world’s number 2 chemical is produced by combining sunlight with wastewater nitrate
Researchers at UIC are developing a long-term electrochemical device that combines a solar cell with a liquid solution in a well. Nitrates via wastewater mostly in liquid solution are transformed to ammonia during charging. Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago recently developed an electrochemical solar energy reaction which not only uses wastewater to manufacture […]
Scientists observed First-order Phase Change in Nuclear Matter
The Science When protons and neutrons “melt,” new data reveals that they go through a “first-order” phase transition—a kind of stop-and-go change in temperature. This is comparable to how ice melts: energy raises the temperature first, then the temperature remains constant during the transition as the energy changes a solid into a liquid. The temperature […]
Role of mRNA in cancer treatment
Aman Kumar With both of the existing Covid-19 vaccinations authorized for essential use by the FDA, the potential for mRNA treatments has been emphasized by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. However, mRNA’s promise extends beyond that, including the treatment of various viral illnesses, genetic disorders, and potentially cancer. Cells utilize mRNA to convert DNA to proteins, […]
Making methane from Carbon Dioxide: Carbon capture grows more affordable
For a long time, scientists have been interested in converting the global-warming chemical carbon dioxide into something of a useful fuel. Several scientists and researchers are wrangling with how to conserve hydrogen, which is an excellent energy transporter. Carbon dioxide reacting with hydrogen to form methane, a fuel, is a technique to kill two birds […]
An innovative polymer coating for transplanted organs
Organ transplantation is a very important part of biomedical engineering through which a very severe life could be saved by replacing their damaged organ with a healthy one that is being provided by a donor. The donor, in this case, may be a brain-dead person or a living person that gives the organ, and the […]
