Coupe-crossover Lynk&Co 05+

10.09.2021

Geely-owned company Lynk & Co presented a new "charged" crossover 05+ at the Chengdu Motor Show. The novelty, which has become, in fact, the top version of the 05 cross-coupe, received an aggressive appearance, a modified suspension and an engine boosted to 265 hp.

Externally, the crossover with the plus sign differed from the "donor" with enlarged rims, a sports body kit with a diffuser in the front bumper, a rear wing and two twin exhaust pipes under the rear bumper.

Inside, the new 05+ features bolstered seats, suede trim and copious contrasting decor, while everything else, including a large 12,7-inch media tablet, compact gear selector and fully digital instrument cluster, is carried over from the standard Lynk&Co 05.

Technically, the cross-coupe was unified with the Lynk & Co 03+ sedan, which is built on a common CMA platform from Volvo, but is equipped with a forced 2.0 turbo engine of the Drive-E family, producing 265 hp. and 380 Nm of torque. This engine is paired with an eight-speed Aisin automatic and four-wheel drive with a BorgWarner multi-plate clutch on the rear axle. Acceleration to "hundreds" in 05+ takes 6,5 seconds according to the "passport" - 0,6 seconds slower than that of a related sedan.

However, technical innovations were not limited to one engine. In addition to it, the crossover received a sports suspension (with other springs and shock absorbers) and reinforced front brakes from the Japanese company Akebono with four-piston mechanisms, thanks to which the braking distance of a car from 100 km / h is only 34 meters.

The price of the novelty is 40 thousand dollars.

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 ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Programmable photonic quantum chip 14.03.2021

A team of researchers and engineers at Canadian company Xanadu Quantum Technologies Inc., working with the US National Institute of Standards and Technology, has developed a programmable, scalable photonic quantum chip that can run multiple algorithms.

Engineers around the world are working to create a truly useful quantum computer that can perform calculations that traditional computers would take millions of years to complete. To date, most such efforts have been focused on two main architectures - based on superconducting electrical circuits and based on trapped ion technology. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, and both must operate in a supercooled environment, making them difficult to scale.

Less attention is paid to work based on the photon approach to building a quantum computer. This approach is considered less feasible due to the problems associated with the generation of quantum states, as well as with the transformation of such states on demand. One big advantage of photonic based systems over the other two architectures is that they don't need to be cooled - they can operate at room temperature.

In this new effort, Xanadu engineers have overcome some of the challenges associated with photonics-based systems and created a working, programmable photonic quantum chip that can run multiple algorithms and can also scale. They called it the X8 photonic quantum processing unit. During operation, the chip is connected to what the Xanadu team describes as a "squeezed light source" - infrared laser pulses operating with microscopic resonators. This is because the new system performs continuous-variable quantum computing rather than using single-photon oscillators.

The new system is the first photonic quantum computing platform to be made available to the public. Those who wish to run applications on it can choose between 8 or 12 qubit systems on top of the Xanadu Quantum Cloud.
