The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Dog's paw will test the reliability of the car 07.12.2019

A 3D-printed paw will allow you to experiment with the paintwork of cars, checking the level of wear.

Engineers used a real Labrador Yogi from the National Guide Dog Breeding Center to create the artificial paw. The dog jumped into the trunk of the new Land Rover Defender and jumped out of it, and each action of the dog was recorded using special pressure calculation technology - the collected data formed the basis of RoboYogi.

The paw of a 9-year-old Labrador was taken as a model, based on it being 3D printed copies on springs. Artificial paw claws distribute pressure evenly over the bumper, simulating the claws and paw of a medium-sized dog. RoboYogi is used for 5000 color check cycles - the artificial paw scratches the car body 10 times in random places, and then on one specific side, after which the process is repeated.

Based on the results of tests using RoboYogi, the engineers of the British automaker came to the conclusion that the paintwork of Land Rover vehicles can easily withstand contact with animal paws for 10 years of operation of the car.
