- Physicists are slowly turning quantum woo back into math. New work hints the spooky might just be very weird bookkeeping. Does that ruin your magic system or make it better? https://www.quantamagazine.org/are-the-mysteries-of-quantum-mechanics-beginning-to-dissolve-20260213/ #physics #scifi #STEM
- My #bookreview of "Why nobody understands #quantumPhysics" is out in this month's issue of C&I https://proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2026/02/not-understanding-quantum-mechanics.html #physics #popularScience #nonFiction #books
- The rough argument, which I find is rather neat, goes like this: If reflection depends on the phase of the incoming signal, a signal with a slight but not too large frequency offset will have a constantly changing phase with respect to the carrier. If as a consequence, the reflection coefficient changes, the product will contain new frequencies. The more the reflection factor changes, the stronger these would be. It so turns out that the dominant component is just a mirror image of the stimulus. Consider for example this.low precision sweep for a small push pull amp with rather large […]

- Continued fromhttps://mastodon.social/@franco_vazza/116087062351310917so: this was the INAF press-release that needed a picture on my side (although I am not in this paper). Cool paper by L. Burmeister, P. Da Vela et al studying the spectrum of Gamma Ray Burst GRB 221009A observed with FERMI and LHAASO, to derive that cosmic voids must have a magnetic field of (at least) 2.5e-17Gauss. #astronomy #astrophysics #physics https://www.media.inaf.it/2026/02/20/tracce-campo-magnetico-primordiale-nei-vuoti-cosmici/?fbclid=IwY2xjawQFOd5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEe0SSHn1u1sNlrBOW62iZP0WJfgS6i0C62g84w7dSEx1YyGjPbrYUrzQWbk3c_aem_S9IUK_yDfIv3MWGz28D1_Q
- đđťââď¸ ICYMI: đ˘đ§Ş Maintaining a constant depth is one of the hardest parts of #underwater #engineering.The latest build from Brick Experiment Channel solves this using a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and a medical syringe as a ballast tank. By pulling water in or pushing it out, the system achieves neutral buoyancy. This allows the #LEGO vehicle to sit suspended in the #water.đ Learn more: https://thekidshouldseethis.com/post/lego-technic-submarine-syringe-raspberry-pi?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=new_content&utm_content=lego_technic_submarine#design #diy #howto #machines #physics #river #science #submarine #technology #tech #vehicles #tksst #video
- Did you know that Newton's third law – the one that says when walking, we push against the ground to move forward – can also be found in AI?Scientists at the Intelligent Maintenance and Intelligent Maintenance and Operations Systems laboratory have developed a new algorithm that forces AI to adhere to the laws of fundamental physics at all times, ensuring more consistent interactions and more stable, credible simulations.Find out more: https://go.epfl.ch/9f79b3#EPFL #Physics #AI
- Short movie showing the evolution on large scales of two different sets of stochastic magnetic fields (with two different initial coherence scales) on a 10 Megaparsec region of the cosmic web, simulated with the ideal MHD code Enzo. Cosmological evolution convolves the morphology of such initial fields, but voids and partially filaments preserve some dynamical memory of the initial field configuration.#astronomy #astrophysics #physics
