Making semiconductors often leaves tiny issues, like dangling bonds and charge traps, on channels and interfaces. Fixing these can be tough, especially with small structures and thin materials like MoS 2 . High-energy treatments might cause more harm than good. So, scientists turned to hydrogen io
Early Monday, office workers leaned on Microsoft's Outlook and Teams for their daily tasks, but these crucial programs weren't cooperating. Outlook. com alone had over 6, 800 outage reports, with Downdetector tracking the spike. Teams, known for video calls and calendars, also faced downtime, though
Imagine starting your Monday morning ready to tackle the day, only to find that your Microsoft services like Outlook and Teams aren't working. That's what many users experienced when Microsoft faced an outage on Monday. The issues began around 5 a. m. ET, affecting Microsoft 365, Teams, Outlook, and
Managing meningiomas tied to neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) isn't one-size-fits-all. These intracranial tumors can pop up one at a time or in groups, making each case unique. One treatment option is stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), a high-precision radiation technique. A team of experts dug into the
Elon Musk, the world's richest person, made a surprising claim against Jeff Bezos, the third-richest person. He said Bezos told people to sell stocks in Musk's companies, Tesla and SpaceX, because Bezos thought Trump would lose the election. Bezos quickly denied this on Musk's social media platform,
Meet the yeast, Aureobasidium pullulans, a tiny creature from the vast open ocean. This yeast has a unique ability: it can switch between growing as single cells and forming long, thread-like filaments. Scientists have been trying to understand what causes this change in shape. A recent study found
The epidermal growth factor receptor, or EGFR, helps cells grow and become specialized. But when things go wrong, EGFR can cause cancer. There are eight molecules, called ligands, that activate EGFR, with two main ones being epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α). Sci
Scientists used a fancy computer code called ZEUS-3D to figure out what happened when a comet named SL9 smashed into Jupiter. They added some special rules to make the code understand light and heat better. They found that a huge shock wave formed, which matched what we saw from space. This shock wa
Epilepsy, a significant cause of disability and early death globally, can be tricky to diagnose. Doctors need detailed patient histories and specific tests to tell apart epilepsy from fainting spells. A big part of this diagnosis is using an electroencephalogram (EEG), which records brain activity.
On August 29, 2024, Northrop Grumman's Scaled Composites revealed its new Model 437 drone. This isn't your average drone—it has a cockpit and a pilot. The success of this project has raised questions about the future of manned fighter jets like the F-35. The U. S. Air Force is increasingly intereste
