The Least Costly Yet: Scientists Unveil a New Carbon Capture System

Scientists at PNNL are charting a profitable course for carbon capture through carbon upcycling, unlocking a crucial step in the decarbonization process and moving closer to achieving net zero emissions. The requirement for technology that can capture, eliminate, and recycle carbon dioxide grows

Pulses driven by artificial intelligence tame quantum systems

It's easy to control the trajectory of a basketball: Just apply mechanical force coupled with human skill. But controlling the movement of quantum systems such as atoms and electrons is much more challenging, as these minuscule scraps of matter often fall prey to perturbations that knock them off their path in unpredictable ways. Movement within the system degrades—a process called damping—and noise from environmental effects such as temperature also disturbs its trajectory.

Consciousness may rely on quantum entanglement

A team of researchers possibly witnessed entanglement in the brain, perhaps indicating that some of our brain activity, and maybe even consciousness, operates on a quantum level.

Brain experiment suggests that consciousness relies on quantum entanglement

New research indicates that consciousness may rely on quantum mechanics. Perhaps the brain does not operate in a "classical" way.

The Brain Uses Calculus to Control Fast Movements

Researchers discover that to sharpen its control over precise maneuvers, the brain uses comparisons between control signals — not the signals themselves.

New research on an ancient gold coin suggests that a third century Roman emperor written out of history as a fictional character really did exist, scientists say.

Gold coin proves 'fake' Roman emperor was real

The coin bearing the name of Sponsian was considered apocryphal and had been locked away in a museum cupboard.
