“It was pretty amazing how well the experimental data and numerical simulation matched,” Eckert said. In fact, it matched so closely that Carenza’s first response was that it must be wrong. The team jokingly worried that a peer reviewer might think they’d cheated. “It really was that beautiful,” Carenza said.The observations answer a “long-standing question about the type of order present in tissues,” said Joshua Shaevitz, a physicist at Princeton University who reviewed the paper (and did not think they’d cheated).…

HOUSTON — The apartment complex where Teresa Eddins now lives is so quiet that “you can hear a pin drop” at night, she says — a stark contrast to the constant noise she withstood while living beneath a bridge two years ago. She was one of the first people who moved into a former hotel in Houston that served as a center to help homeless people navigate their way to more stability. She credits the transitional housing facility and programs launched as part of “The Way Home,” the large Texas city’s nationally recognized…

A free-spirited young beauty in late 19th-century rural Poland falls foul of the repressive patriarchy, the petty-minded jealousies simmering in her village and her own extremely poor judgment in this lavish rotoscoped and oil-painted animation. Directors DK Welchman and Hugh Welchman, the team behind the Oscar-nominated Loving Vincent, employ the same painstaking and striking animation technique as they used to explore the final days in the life of Vincent van Gogh.This time, the source material is The Peasants, the 1924…

Cornell researchers discovered a “quantum spin-glass” state in quantum computing, offering insights into error correction and revealing hidden orders in quantum algorithms, potentially leading to new quantum state classifications and advances in quantum computing. At the microscopic level, window glass exhibits a curious blend of properties. Its atoms are disordered like a liquid, yet they possess the rigidity of a solid; when a force is applied to one atom, it affects all others. It’s an analogy physicists use to…

Despite raking in decent monthly numbers of the Jimny in terms of sales, Maruti Suzuki has dropped a bomb by introducing some never-seen-before discounts for the compact off-roader. For December 2023, Maruti Suzuki has dropped the prices of Jimny significantly – almost Rs 2 lakh for the Zeta and Rs 1 lakh for the Alpha variants. With this drop in pricing, the Maruti Suzuki Jimny has become much more affordable than its direct rival, the Mahindra Thar, with the margins widening to as much as Rs lakh now. Maruti Suzuki…

My revelation came in the spring, after a typical day in 11th-grade AP English. The topic was gender and how the experiences of the authors we were studying related to our world today. Unfortunately, I didn’t hear anything I hadn’t heard many times before.Class discussions tend to go like that. We’ve been inculcated with approved positions on issues such as gender identity, patriarchy, cultural appropriation and microaggressions. Any perceived misstep can ruin a reputation in a flash.But then something unusual happened.…

Undersea volcanic eruptions account for more than three-quarters of all volcanism on Earth, but rarely do we see the impacts.The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai eruption of 2022 was a dramatic exception. Its furious explosion from shallow waters broke the ocean surface and punched through the stratosphere, generating supercharged lighting and an atmospheric shock wave that circled the globe several times.But there was far more to the fallout than satellite images could possibly capture or observers could report.We know the…
