Security experts have discovered a new, highly automated phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform that has been streamlining large-scale credential theft across 90 countries for several months. KnowBe4, ...

Designed to accelerate advances in medicine and other fields, the tech giant’s quantum algorithm runs 13,000 times as fast as software written for a traditional supercomputer. A quantum computer at ...

When I began my master’s program in cognitive science, an electrical engineering professor told us—rather arrogantly—that the soul is nothing but neurons firing. “You’re deluded if you think otherwise ...

Stochastic oscillator measures stock momentum, aiding buy or sell decisions. It ranges 0-100; over 80 suggests overbought, below 20 indicates oversold. Use alongside other indicators to enhance ...

A Vermont research team has cracked a 90-year-old puzzle, creating a quantum version of the damped harmonic oscillator. By reformulating Lamb’s classical model, they showed how atomic vibrations can ...

Scientists discover how a hidden crystal pattern in advanced materials can control how they emit light, offering new ways to guide ultrafast signals using lasers. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Modern ...

Imagine plucking a guitar string. It vibrates, the sound lingers, and then fades away as the energy drains into the air. Now bring this scene down to the scale of an atom. Can an atom vibrate in the ...

When a guitar string is plucked or a playground swing is set in motion, the movement gradually fades away. Physicists call these “damped harmonic oscillators,” and Newton’s laws do a fine job of ...

A plucked guitar string can vibrate for seconds before falling silent. A playground swing, emptied of its passenger, will gradually come to rest. These are what physicists call "damped harmonic ...

University of Vermont professor Dennis Clougherty (right) and his student Nam Dinh wondered if there are systems in the atomic scale that behave like the vibrating motion of a guitar string in the ...

In a new Physical Review Letters study, researchers propose an experimental approach that could finally determine whether gravity is fundamentally classical or quantum in nature. The nature of gravity ...
