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 ... >>

To avoid mating, female frogs play dead 16.10.2023

Scientists have discovered that female European common frogs have developed several methods to avoid unwanted mating, including the surprising strategy of faking their own death.

Female European common frogs (Rana temporaria) exhibit a mimicry strategy by appearing dead when multiple males attempt to mate at the same time. This behavior has been observed and recorded in laboratory conditions.

Frogs of this species are known for their active reproduction, gathering in large groups near bodies of water. Typically, the number of males exceeds the number of females, and as a result, several males compete for the right to mate with one female. Sometimes such attempts can lead to the death of the female.

However, females have evolved a variety of strategies to prevent unwanted matings. These strategies are activated when the number of males is too large, when a female is not interested in mating with a particular male, or when she is not ready to mate in the first place.

The researchers conducted an experiment by collecting frogs in laboratory conditions, where each pair (one male and two females) had two separate tanks of water. The recorded result showed that 83% of the females showed protective behavior.

In addition, scientists found that 48% of females made various sound signals, reminiscent of grunting and squeaking. According to the researchers, these sounds imitate the sound made by male frogs to scare away competitors.

A third of the females assumed a motionless posture with their limbs outstretched for about two minutes after the male attacked.

Experts believe that faking death may be a strategic behavior, although they cannot say that it is a conscious act. This is likely an automatic response to stress that effectively serves as self-protection.
