Analog computers are systems that perform computations by manipulating physical quantities such as electrical current, that ...

A new method for measuring three different properties of light, at the same time, has been developed using an interferometry-based quantum sensing scheme capable of simultaneously estimating multiple ...

FSNet is a new problem-solving tool that can find the optimal solution to an extremely complex problem without violating any of the problem’s many constraints. Developed at MIT, FSNet could help power ...

The mystery of the Moai stone heads has eluded onlookers for centuries — and now, researchers say they finally know how they got there. The statues, which were carved and placed on the South Pacific's ...

Helping students to develop math fluency takes more than just flash cards. It requires teaching them how to think about numbers. And while that may seem daunting, most kids enjoy sharpening their math ...

Plastics are woven into every aspect of our lives, but what was once the poster child for convenience is fast becoming a pariah product. The era of single-use plastic must end; banning it is the only ...
