Quantum computing just got hotter: One degree above absolute zero

Quantum computing just got hotter: One degree above absolute zero

For decades‚ the pursuit of quantum computing has struggled with the need for extremely low temperatures‚ mere fractions of a degree above absolute zero (0 Kelvin or –273.15Â°C). That's because the quantum phenomena that grant quantum computers their unique computational abilities can only be harnessed by isolating them from the warmth of the familiar classical world we inhabit.

Researchers discover key gene for toxic alkaloid in barley

Researchers discover key gene for toxic alkaloid in barley

All plants mediate their environmental interactions via chemical signals. An example is the alkaloid gramine produced by barley‚ one of the world's most widely-grown cereals. Gramine provides protection against herbivorous insects and grazing animals and inhibits the growth of other plants. Despite long-standing interest‚ the key gene for the formation of gramine remained elusive.

Study finds wild nematode worms learn to avoid harmful bacteria—and their offspring inherit this knowledge

Study finds wild nematode worms learn to avoid harmful bacteria—and their offspring inherit this knowledge

The nematode worm C. elegans will stay away from dangerous bacteria in its environment when exposed to certain bacterial RNAs—and can transmit that learned behavior to future generations. A team led by Coleen Murphy at Princeton University report these findings in a new study‚ published in the journal PLOS Genetics.

Memories of mitosis: Molecular mechanism that detects defects during cell division could aid cancer treatment

Memories of mitosis: Molecular mechanism that detects defects during cell division could aid cancer treatment

Every day‚ our cells are hard at work multiplying. Cell division is a precise process‚ but sometimes this process is impaired and diseases like cancer occur. Mitosis is one of the most important phases in the cell cycle. During this phase‚ a cell's DNA is split into two equal sets of chromosomes and it divides into two genetically identical daughter cells.

Tuberculosis vaccine may enable elimination of the disease in cattle by reducing its spread

Tuberculosis vaccine may enable elimination of the disease in cattle by reducing its spread

Vaccination not only reduces the severity of TB in infected cattle‚ but reduces its spread in dairy herds by 89%‚ research finds. The research‚ led by the University of Cambridge and Penn State University‚ improves prospects for the elimination and control of bovine tuberculosis (TB)‚ an infectious disease of cattle that results in large economic costs and health impacts across the world. The study is published in the journal Science.

Blueprint for mandating indoor air quality for public buildings in form of standards

Blueprint for mandating indoor air quality for public buildings in form of standards

In research published in the journal Science experts addressed setting standards for three key indoor pollutants—carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ carbon monoxide (CO)‚ PM2.5‚ which are particles so small they can lodge deep in the lungs and enter the bloodstream—and ventilation rate. The paper is titled "Mandating indoor air quality standards for public‚"

Faintest known star system orbiting the Milky Way discovered

A team of astronomers led by the University of Victoria and Yale University has detected an ancient star system traveling around our galaxy named Ursa Major III / UNIONS 1 (UMa3/U1)—the faintest and lowest-mass Milky Way satellite ever discovered‚ and possibly one of the most dark matter-dominated systems known.
