Scientists Use A.I. to Reconstruct Pink Floyd Using the Brain Activity of Surgical Patients
Scientists have successfully reconstructed Pink Floyd’s ‘Another Brick in the Wall Part 1’ by decoding the brain activity of patients who listened to the song while waiting for brain surgery. It is hoped that the research will one day help grant those suffering from paralysis and developmental or neurological disorders a more expressive voice. The… Continue reading Scientists Use A.I. to Reconstruct Pink Floyd Using the Brain Activity of Surgical Patients
Scientists One Step Closer to the Potential Discovery of a Fifth Force of Nature
An international team of scientists has provided new results in an experiment that could have a profound impact on humanity’s understanding of the universe by potentially revealing the existence of a fifth force of nature, a new subatomic particle, or a flaw in the Standard Model of particle physics. Every piece of matter in the… Continue reading Scientists One Step Closer to the Potential Discovery of a Fifth Force of Nature
Scientists Spot Super High Energy Gamma Rays Coming From The Sun
Scientists have detected a dramatic excess of gamma rays pouring out from the Sun, which represent the highest-energy light emissions ever detected from Earth’s star. “The sun is more surprising than we knew,” said postdoctoral research associate Mehr Un Nisa of Michigan State University, who worked on the new study published in the journal Physical… Continue reading Scientists Spot Super High Energy Gamma Rays Coming From The Sun
