Looking for elusive quantum particles? Try a bad metal, researchers suggest

Metals, as most know them, are good conductors of electricity. That's because the countless electrons in a metal like gold or silver move more or less freely from one atom to the next, their motion impeded only by occasional collisions with defects in the material. There are, however, metallic materials at odds with our conventional understanding of what it means to be a metal. In so-called "bad metals"—a technical term, explains Columbia physicist Dmitri Basov—electrons hit unexpected resistance: each other. Instead of the electrons behaving like individual balls bouncing about, they become correlated with one another, clumping up so that their need to move more collectively impedes the flow of an electrical current. Bad metals may make for poor electrical conductors, but it turns out that they make good quantum materials. In work published on February 13 in the journal Science, Basov's group unexpectedly observed unusual optical properties in the bad metal molybdenum oxide dichloride (MoOCl2).

Understanding Conductivity Meters

Electrical conductivity is a measure of a material’s ability to conduct an electric current. In the context of solutions, it refers to the capacity of the solution to transmit electrical flow, which is directly related to the presence of ions in the solution. A conductivity meter, therefore, is an essential tool that measures the electrical conductivity in a solution, providing insights into its…

Las sustancias conductivas que se hallan presentes en el zumo de limones, kiwis y frutillas son monitoreadas por sensores específicos de plataforma de código abierto/Arduino ( sensores de conductividad, electroquímicos, de voltaje) contenidas en el interior de los tubos de ensayo.

Esta información (analógica-digital) relevada por los electrolitos en tiempo real son procesadas por el código en software de composición algoritmica, Supercollider, generando frecuencias del espectro del ruido rosa. Las frutas de esta manera, actúan como interfaces, generando distintas señales eléctricas por cantidad de carga contenida.

In the realm of modern manufacturing and electronics, the importance of surface finishing techniques, particularly electroplating, cannot be overstated. This intricate process not only enhances the appearance of metal products but also significantly boosts their durability, resistance to corrosion, and electrical conductivity. This article dives into the fascinating world of electroplating, explaining its fundamental principles and diverse applications.

Self-driving lab transforms electronic polymers discovery

Plastic that conducts electricity might sound impossible. But there is a special class of materials known as "electronic polymers" that combines the flexibility of plastic with the functionality of metal. This type of material opens the door for breakthroughs in wearable devices, printable electronics and advanced energy storage systems. Yet, making thin films from electronic polymers has always been a difficult task. It takes a lot of fine-tuning to achieve the right balance of physical and electronic properties. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have created an innovative solution to this challenge with artificial intelligence (AI). They used an AI-driven, automated materials laboratory, a tool called Polybot, to explore processing methods and produce high-quality films. Polybot is located at the Center for Nanoscale Materials, a DOE Office of Science user facility at Argonne.

Apart from its obvious uses in cans (figure 14.5), foil, and windows and doors, aluminium's strength, lightness, high electrical and thermal conductivity, and resistance to corrosion make it useful in kitchen utensils, car, aircraft and rocket construction, electrical transmission lines and in coatings for high-precision mirrors such as those in telescopes.

Which Orpheus Hadestown is best Orpheus Hadestown?

This question has long plagued our minds, so we decided to settle it with a game night. @yatorihell represented Donal Finn, @bluebelleisms represented Dylan Wood, and I represented Reeve Carney.

We started the deciding battle with a round of Monopoly (you know, nothing says poor boy like building hotels in America and bankrupting your friends). Unlike any other night, when we would sit for hours and support each other to make sure everyone was having fun, this round was quick and painful. So quick and painful, in fact, that when Donal emerged as victor, we decided to play a two out of three tournament instead.

Next followed a round of UNO, and the same thing happened. Reeve won after only two bloody, bloody hands.

Upon Dylan's choice, third round was Monopoly again, and the poor boy was poor no more - Dylan bravely drove both Reeve and Donal to absolute bankruptcy in record time

And so, the deciding round was held in UNO yet again, and the underdog Dylan took home the crown!

Congrats Dylan, officially named best Orpheus Hadestown ever <3<3<3

Bonus: two most stubborn people around engage in trading

Panic attacks are ridiculous. Monkey brain: "Oh no, I've encountered a relatively innocuous 21st-century source of anxiety! Time to act like I'm being pursued across the Serengeti by something with huge claws and teeth!"
