Electromagnetism is a property of spacetime itself, study finds
WEBJul 23, 2021 · The research shows that Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism are hidden in the Einstein field equations of general relativity, and that electric and magnetic fields represent certain local tensions or twists in the spacetime fabric. The study also suggests that electromagnetic fields cause special curvature in spacetime, called Weyl curvature, and that this could have implications for ...
Dire wolves went extinct 13,000 years ago but thanks to new …
WEBJan 14, 2021 · Thanks to the hit television series Game of Thrones, the dire wolf has gained a near-mythical status. But it was a real animal that roamed the Americas for at least 250,000 years, until it became extinct towards the end of the last ice age around 13,000 years ago. While in popular culture the dire wolf is portrayed as a giant predator hunting in snow-covered, northern landscapes, most ...

New warp drive research dashes faster than light travel dreams – …
WEBApr 16, 2021 · A new paper by US physicists Bobrick and Martire clarifies the nature of warp drives, hypothetical devices that could bend spacetime and travel faster than light. They show that warp drives are not impossible, but they face huge energy requirements and time dilation effects.

WEBDec 8, 2020 · How do genes influence the shape and appearance of our faces? Learn about the latest research that scanned the DNA of 8,000 people and identified more than 130 regions associated with facial shape. Find out what this means for health, disease and personalized medicine.
Warp drives: Physicists give chances of faster-than-light space …
WEBLearn how warp drives could theoretically compress and expand spacetime to achieve faster-than-light speeds, and what challenges remain to make them a reality. Find out how recent papers claim to overcome the negative energy problem of warp drives.
IBM RXN: New AI model boosts mapping of chemical reactions
WEBFeb 8, 2021 · IBM RXN is a web-based app that uses deep learning models to classify, visualize, and search chemical reactions. It treats organic chemistry as a language and encodes reactions as SMILES notations, creating reaction fingerprints that can be used to navigate chemical reaction space.
Can consciousness be explained by quantum physics? Research is …
WEBJul 20, 2021 · Research is closer to finding out. One of the most important open questions in science is how our consciousness is established. In the 1990s, long before winning the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics for his prediction of black holes, physicist Roger Penrose teamed up with anaesthesiologist Stuart Hameroff to propose an …
The secret of planets' perihelion between Newton and Einstein
WEBJun 30, 2021 · A paper by Christian Corda shows that Newtonian gravity can predict the anomalous rate of precession of the perihelion of planets' orbit, including Mercury, with high precision. He also suggests that gravitational and rotational time dilation effects can improve the result for Venus and Earth.
