The Butler-Volmer equation is commonly the standard model of electrochemical kinetics. Typically, the effects of applied voltage on the free energies of activation of the forward and backward ...

A FEL creates X-rays by the rapid back-and-forth acceleration of fast-moving electron pulses using a series of magnets called an undulator. These X-rays are emitted at a narrow wavelength and then ...

By linking quantum expressibility to neural tangent kernel behaviour, this work offers a new framework for understanding and improving learning dynamics in quantum machine learning ...

Researchers uncover how vortex-like defects in liquid crystals mimic superconducting behaviour, forming structured Abrikosov clusters ...

Like most things in life, what you get from networking depends on what you put in. To make the most of such events, try to think about how others are feeling in the same situation. Chances are that ...

New observations are the first direct evidence of planets influencing their stars rather than just passively orbiting them ...
