Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the field of astronomy by enabling new approaches to data analysis, pattern recognition, and knowledge discovery. From processing vast amounts of observational data to enhancing simulations, AI techniques are enhancing our understanding of the universe and accelerating scientific discoveries. The role of AI in astronomy encompasses a wide range of … Read more
The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of chemical elements, organized by their atomic number, electron configuration, and recurring chemical properties. It provides a systematic way to categorize and understand the behavior of elements based on their shared characteristics. Dmitri Mendeleev is credited with developing the first periodic table in 1869, arranging elements by their … Read more
When they are active, supermassive black holes play a crucial role in the way galaxies evolve. Until now, growth was thought to be triggered by the violent collision of two galaxies followed by their merger; however, new research led by the University of Bath suggests galaxy mergers alone are not enough to fuel a black … Read more
Big data is a term that has gained significant prominence in recent years, representing a paradigm shift in how data is collected, stored, analyzed, and utilized. It refers to massive volumes of structured and unstructured data generated from various sources at an unprecedented velocity, variety, and scale. This data deluge presents both challenges and opportunities … Read more
Cloud computing is a transformative technology that has revolutionized the way businesses and individuals access, store, and manage data and applications. At its core, cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the internet (“the cloud”). This paradigm shift in IT infrastructure has enabled organizations to … Read more
A recent exploration of James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) data initially led to the identification of extremely red objects (EROs) as potential transitionary quasars. However, further analysis unveiled striking similarities between EROs and blue-excess dust obscured galaxies (BluDOGs) previously observed in Subaru Telescope data. Quasars, enigmatic celestial objects fueled by supermassive black holes, pose a … Read more
Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, in collaboration with the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), have introduced a novel search algorithm that addresses the challenge of efficiently exploring vast microbial sequence databases for enzymes with biotechnological potential. The algorithm, developed in the … Read more
Long considered myth, freakishly large rogue waves are very real and can split apart ships and even damage oil rigs. Using 700 years’ worth of wave data from more than a billion waves, scientists at the University of Copenhagen and University of Victoria have used artificial intelligence to find a formula for how to predict … Read more
Imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT) or positron emission tomography (PET) are indispensable today for the diagnosis and localization of many diseases. A newly developed procedure now enables PET to be used specifically on the basis of changes in the human genome. The new genome-based imaging has the potential for the earlier diagnosis of … Read more
In the realm of big data and artificial intelligence, traditional data storage methods fall short of meeting the escalating demands for high-density storage and energy efficiency. Enter resistive random-access memory (RRAM), a technology that stores data by altering resistance. In a recent publication in Angewandte Chemie International Edition, a research group has introduced a novel … Read more
