| Key advance for printing circuitry on wearable fabrics Posted: 12 Nov 2020 12:58 PM PST Electronic shirts that keep the wearer comfortably warm or cool, as well as medical fabrics that deliver drugs, monitor the condition of a wound and perform other tasks, may one day be manufactured more efficiently thanks to a key research advance. |
| Stretchable 'skin' sensor gives robots human sensation Posted: 12 Nov 2020 12:58 PM PST Cornell University researchers have created a fiber-optic sensor that combines low-cost LEDs and dyes, resulting in a stretchable ''skin'' that detects deformations such as pressure, bending and strain. This sensor could give soft robotic systems - and anyone using augmented reality technology - the ability to feel the same rich, tactile sensations that mammals depend on to navigate the natural world. |
| Escape from Mars: How water fled the red planet Posted: 12 Nov 2020 11:40 AM PST Mars once had oceans but is now bone-dry, leaving many to wonder how the water was lost. Researchers have discovered a surprisingly large amount of water in the upper atmosphere of Mars, where it is rapidly destroyed, explaining part of this Martian mystery. |
| Birth of magnetar from colossal collision potentially spotted for first time Posted: 12 Nov 2020 10:46 AM PST Researchers spotted a short gamma ray burst 10 times brighter than predicted. The mysterious brightness might signal the birth of a rare magnetar, formed from two neutron stars merging, which has never before been observed. |
| Time for a new state of matter in high-temperature superconductors Posted: 12 Nov 2020 07:35 AM PST Scientists have pointed out how to create a 'time crystal' in an intriguing class of materials, the high-temperature superconductors. They propose to drive these superconducting materials into a time crystalline state by inducing Higgs excitations via light. |
