Lithium-ion (or Li-ion) batteries are heavy hitters when it comes to the world of rechargeable batteries. As electric vehicles become more common in the world, a high-energy, low-cost battery utilizing the abundance of manganese (Mn) can be a sustainable option to become commercially available and utilized in the automobile industry.

Last week, quantum computers were added to Australia's Defense and Strategic Goods List of controlled items facing export restrictions. That's because quantum technologies—which may soon provide huge advances in computing, communication and sensing—are rapidly growing in strategic importance.

Automatic bug assignment has been well studied in the past decade. As textual bug reports usually describe the buggy phenomena and potential causes, engineers highly depend on these reports to fix bugs. Researchers heavily depend on the textual content in the bug reports to locate the buggy files. However, noises in texts bring adverse impacts to automatic bug assignments unexpectedly, mainly due to insufficiency of classical Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques.

Researchers from EPFL have developed a next-generation miniaturized brain-machine interface capable of direct brain-to-text communication on tiny silicon chips.

For the past decade, disordered rock salt has been studied as a potential breakthrough cathode material for use in lithium-ion batteries and a key to creating low-cost, high-energy storage for everything from cell phones to electric vehicles to renewable energy storage.

Recent efforts aimed at developing more advanced battery technologies have in great part focused on designing novel cathode materials. This is because existing cathodes do not perform well at high voltages and can contribute to the rapid loss of battery capacity.

The Boeing Starliner astronauts stranded in space for nearly three months are going to have to be there a little longer ... 'cause they're not going to be earthbound until next year.

A team of scientists from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory has uncovered new information about the photoelectric effect, a phenomenon first described by Einstein over a century ago. Their method provides a new tool to study electron-electron interactions, which are fundamental to many technologies, including semiconductors and solar cells.

Over the past couple of decades, computer scientists have developed a wide range of deep neural networks (DNNs) designed to tackle various real-world tasks. While some of these models have proved to be highly effective, some studies found that they can be unfair, meaning that their performance may vary based on the data they were trained on and even the hardware platforms they were deployed on.

Brown widow spiders are venomous, but their bites are considered much less dangerous than other venomous spiders.

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) see a realistic path forward to the manufacture of bio-derivable wind blades that can be chemically recycled and the components reused, ending the practice of old blades winding up in landfills at the end of their useful life.

हाइब्रिड पेरोव्स्काइट्स में सौर कोशिकाओं और एलईडी जैसे उन्नत इलेक्ट्रॉनिक उपकरणों में उपयोग की काफी संभावनाएं हैं।हालाँकि, उन्हें रोके रखने वाला एक प्रमुख मुद्दा यह है कि वे व्यापक व्यावसायिक उपयोग के लिए उतने लंबे समय तक नहीं टिकते हैं जितने समय तक इसकी आवश्यकता होती है।जैसे-जैसे ये सामग्रियां पुरानी होती जाती हैं, उनका प्रदर्शन गिरता जाता है, जो शोधकर्ताओं और कंपनियों दोनों के लिए एक बड़ी समस्या है।

वैश्विक जलवायु परिवर्तन को कम करने के लिए कई तकनीकी और नीतिगत दृष्टिकोणों पर विचार किया जा रहा है।क्या और कैसे इन दृष्टिकोणों को प्राथमिकता दी जाती है या छोड़ दिया जाता है, यह अक्सर सीधे सार्वजनिक अनुमोदन पर निर्भर करता है।

As climate change creates hotter, drier conditions, we are seeing longer fire seasons with larger, more frequent wildfires. In recent years, catastrophic wildfires have destroyed homes and infrastructure, caused devastating losses in lives and livelihoods of people living in affected areas, and damaged wildland resources and the economy. We need new solutions to fight wildfires and protect areas from damage.

The most recent email you sent was likely encrypted using a tried-and-true method that relies on the idea that even the fastest computer would be unable to efficiently break a gigantic number into factors.

With huge data centers set to drive up already outsized energy demand, the tiny city-state of Singapore is looking to Australia's deserts and Malaysia's rainforests for clean power.

Reducing carbon emissions from small-scale combustion systems, such as boilers and other industrial equipment, is a key step towards building a more sustainable, carbon-neutral future. Boilers are widely used across various industries for essential processes like heating, steam generation, and power production, making them significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions.

The center of Tropical Storm Hone could pass near or south of Hawaii's Big Island this weekend, forecasters said.

Training deep learning models on large datasets is essential for their success; however, these datasets often contain label noise, which can significantly decrease the classification performance on test datasets.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) in the past decade has greatly enhanced the ability of wearable devices to process complex data. Among them, machine learning—a major category of AI algorithms—and its important branch, deep learning, are the main thrust of this wave of AI.
