Army scientists say they’ve found a way to block cyber hackers

Los Angeles-based researchers working for the U.S. Army announced that they have finally found the signature of the elusive Majorana fermion. According to an article on ScienceDaily, this theoretical particle will allow quantum encryption technologies that would block cyber hackers from accessing communication networks. The particle was named after Ettore Majorana, an Italian theoretical physicist who predicted its […]

The “information speed limit” just got doubled by quantum physicists

Quantum physicists have once more managed to bend the laws of nature. They found out how to send twice the amount of information using a single particle, effectively doubling the so-called bandwidth of the universe even though the speed of the message hasn’t increased, according to an article on Space.com. We can only transfer so […]

Researchers are one step closer to creating solid oxide fuel cells

Solid oxide fuel cells could become more affordable and commonplace thanks to a recent study that successfully identified more than 50 candidate materials, reported a NanoWerk article. The new materials could allow a fuel cell to run at lower temperatures, which leads to a longer lifespan and cheaper costs. Materials researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison) […]
