Researchers uncover hidden pore network within nuclear fuel
New understanding of how nuclear fuel breaks down and changes in an operating nuclear reactor could help keep some reactors running longer, will inform the next generation of nuclear reactor fuel systems.
A new study by MIT researchers shows that inhibiting caspase-1 can reduce the risk of tumor growth.
When AI art has no author: Study finds generated images often can’t be traced to training data
A new method for surgically removing training examples from a model reveals that as datasets grow, the link between what a model learns and what it produces dissolves.
Securing wireless communication in next-generation devices
A new, scalable technique could enable powerful radars and sensors based on quantum technology that works at room temperature.
The “ShiftLens” design and fabrication system creates objects that change their surface appearance based on user interactions, without any electronics.
“GeoPT” helps AI models understand the basics of physics so they can simulate how objects respond to things like wind and water more efficiently and accurately.
MIT researchers tackle the economic realities of fusion power
Their new study aims to give budding industry a framework for understanding how fusion can be profitable.
