Newswise: Moisture Matters for Viruses in Soil

Moisture Matters for Viruses in Soil
Department of Energy, Office of Science

A teaspoon of soil contains billions of viruses and other microorganisms. In this study, scientists examined viruses in soil from Kansas prairies to sequence genetic material, identify viruses’ proteins, and look at how viruses’ activity varied under different environmental conditions. They found that some viruses were more abundant in wet soils, while others were more active.

Newswise: Predicting Explosive Energy Bursts in Compact Fusion Power Plants

Predicting Explosive Energy Bursts in Compact Fusion Power Plants
Department of Energy, Office of Science

Edge localized modes (ELMs) associated with plasma instabilities in tokamak fusion reactors can damage reactor walls, a challenge in the design of future fusion power plants. Scientists have now discovered that internal resistance of the plasma can cause additional instabilities that drive ELMs in the National Spherical Torus Experiment. This will help researchers mitigate and control ELMs in spherical tokamaks.

Skin-like electronics could monitor your health continuously
Argonne National Laboratory

Researchers from Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering are developing skin-like electronics paired with artificial intelligence for health monitoring and diagnosis.

   
Newswise: Reducing Redundancy to Accelerate Complicated Computations
Released: 15-Nov-2022 2:30 PM EST
Reducing Redundancy to Accelerate Complicated Computations
Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility

Computers help physicists solve complicated calculations. But some of these calculations are so complex, a regular computer is not enough. In fact, some advanced calculations tax even the largest supercomputers. Now, scientists at Jefferson Lab and William & Mary have developed MemHC, a new tool that uses memory optimization methods to allow GPU-based computers to calculate the structures of neutrons and protons ten times faster.
