In other words, science is closer than it’s ever been to a usable,…

These three variables make up Einstein’s iconic equation E=MC2. But how did Einstein know about these concepts in the first place? A precursor step to understanding physics is identifying relevant variables. Without the concept of energy, mass, and velocity, not even Einstein could discover relativity. But can such variables be…

For this invention, the Chinese-American scientist, along with Hidetoshi Katori of Japan, will split $3 million as co-winners of the 2022 Breakthrough Prize…

]]> A new test to investigate the origin of cosmic structure https://iseri.xyz/a-new-test-to-investigate-the-origin-of-cosmic-structure/ Tue, 04 Aug 2020 08:42:31 +0000 https://iseri.xyz/?p=2801 (From phys.org)  Many cosmologists believe that the universe’s structure is a result of quantum fluctuations that occurred during early expansion. Confirming this hypothesis, however, has proven highly challenging so far, as it is hard to discern between quantum and classical primordial fluctuations when analyzing existing cosmological data. Two researchers at University of California and Deutsches…

]]> Teaching physics to neural networks removes ‘chaos blindness’ https://iseri.xyz/teaching-physics-to-neural-networks-removes-chaos-blindness/ Sun, 21 Jun 2020 17:39:47 +0000 https://iseri.xyz/?p=2657 (From phys.org) Researchers from North Carolina State University have discovered that teaching physics to neural networks enables those networks to better adapt to chaos within their environment. The work has implications for improved artificial intelligence (AI) applications ranging from medical diagnostics to automated drone piloting. Neural networks are an advanced type of AI loosely based…
