Collision

Researchers have made notable advancements in vector meson spin physics, specifically concerning ϕ mesons in gold nuclei collisions. Their work, which has challenged existing models and provided new insights into the behavior of exotic quarks during hadronization, is a crucial development in high-energy nuclear spin physics.A team of researchers headed by Prof. Wang Qun at the University of Science and Technology of China, under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has achieved a breakthrough in the theoretical understanding…

Cruise, the autonomous vehicle venture owned by General Motors, has issued a recall effecting 950 of its robotaxis following a pedestrian collision in San Francisco last month.Previously, the company had grounded all of its driverless operations following the Oct. 2 collision during which a pedestrian was thrown into the path of the Cruise robotaxi by a human driver in a different car who hit her first.The Cruise autonomous vehicle braked aggressively before impact and then tried to pull over to the side of the road,…

The surface of the Moon is littered with defunct hardware from past missions that are now buried amongst the lunar regolith. A recent crash site left a distinct and curious mark, creating two impact craters of equal size. Scientists examining the collision believe that there may have been an undisclosed object that crashed on the Moon, the origins of which will remain a mystery.China's Plan to Land Astronauts on the MoonOn March 4, 2022, a wayward rocket booster slammed onto the Moon’s surface. Prior to impact, it was…

Today, I’m talking with Golnar Khosrowshahi, the founder and CEO of Reservoir Media, a newer record label that I think looks a lot like the future of the music industry.You might not have heard of Reservoir, but you’ve definitely heard of the artists it works with. Everyone from A-ha and John Denver to Evanescence to Joni Mitchell and even legendary film composer Hans Zimmer. What makes Reservoir different is that Golnar built the company through acquisitions. You might think of a traditional record label as sending…

After focussing on an asteroid that was struck in 2022 by a half-tonne NASA robotic probe traveling over seven times faster than a bullet, the Hubble Space Telescope has detected a swarm of 37 boulders that were dislodged by the impact.On September 26, 2022, NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) deep space probe deliberately collided with the asteroid Dimorphos at about 22,500 km/h (14,000 mph) as part of a demonstration test to examine whether it is possible to alter the trajectory of dangerous asteroids so that…

Foundation—Apple TV+’s Isaac Asimov-inspired sci-fi series—is back for a second season that will introduce new characters and some mind-bending new plot threads. But first, we’ve got to check in with the familiar faces we left on a cliffhanger a year and a half ago. (Need a season one catch-up? We’ve got you covered.)Read more...

Image Source : FILE Two solar storms set to hit Earth tonight, Expert cautions Scientists have issued a prediction that two significant solar storms will reach Earth on Friday at around 5:30 pm, potentially affecting our planet's magnetic field. This cosmic event could result in the mesmerizing display of auroras visible from various parts of the world. However, there…

Tata Tiago Accident (File Photo) Report says the car owner somehow lost his control over the the steering wheel, which caused a collision against the mini truckA viral video is doing rounds on social media platforms, where Tata Tiago is getting a lot of appreciation from people after it managed to save a life during a massive accident.Without disclosing the exact location of the incident, a Youtuber shared the video on his channel, revealing the main cause of the collision. In the video, he was heard saying that the car…

The Gemini North telescope, one half of the International Gemini Observatory, operated by NSF’s NOIRLab, captured this dazzling image of the so-called Taffy Galaxies — UGC 12914 and UGC 12915. Their twisted appearance is the result of a head-on collision that occurred about 25 million years prior to their appearance in this image. A bridge of highly turbulent gas devoid of significant star formation spans the gap between the two galaxies.Credit: International Gemini Observatory/NOIRLab/NSF/AURA, Image Processing: M.…
