3. Oktober 2025 Von KI berichtet
Scientists have developed a novel quantum sensor that could enhance the search for elusive dark matter particles. The innovation, detailed in a recent study, promises to improve sensitivity in detecting weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs. This advancement builds on decades of particle physics research.
Brain's superior colliculus rotates to focus on sounds
30. September 2025 Von KI berichtet
Researchers have discovered that a part of the brain physically swivels to help focus on sounds coming from different directions. This finding, based on experiments in mice, reveals a new mechanism for auditory attention similar to how eyes move for vision. The study was led by scientists at University College London and published in Nature.
