Author(s): Giovanni Marini, Pierluigi Cudazzo, and Matteo CalandraDisorder-driven fluctuations enhance repulsive Coulomb interaction and form a superconducting dome in ionic-liquid-gated few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137, 126001] Published Mon Sep 14, 2026

Author(s): Florian Tropper and Takahito OhmuraThe authors have successfully induced and characterized a channel-like deformation mechanism in pure tungsten, providing a new experimental pathway to evaluate irradiation damage in future nuclear fusion reactors. While this phenomenon, where atomic layers slide rigidly like a solid cylinder being forced through a tight tube, is known to occur as a destructive byproduct of intense radiation inside fusion environments, it has previously been highly difficult to isolate and study in a controlled manner. In this work, they overcame this challenge by precisely pressing a microscopic tip into a specifically oriented tungsten single-crystal. Using advanced electron microscopy techniques, they studied the resulting atomic displacements and determined the channel-like deformation for the first time in this crystal

Microsoft on Monday added itself to a growing list of AI vendors pledging to try to control the behavior of its AI models. “AI should not exceed human control. Models should remain subordinate to humanity, subject to meaningful human oversight and control,” the company wrote in the draft version of its Humanist AI Code of Conduct, released Monday with an invitation to the public to provide feedback.  “Humanist AI develops systems with clear purposes, evaluated against real-world impact, and rejects the race to produce an all-purpose superintelligence that could evade these safeguards,” Microsoft wrote. “We are building something fundamentally useful and safe even if that means compromising on ultimate generality, autonomy, or capability.” Microsoft’s comments are roughly in

A pooled analysis of individual data from five time-restricted eating trials involving 124 adults linked shorter eating windows with modestly greater weight loss. Eight-hour TRE was associated with greater weight loss than 12-hour TRE and controls, while cardiometabolic outcomes showed no consistent relationship with eating-window duration and several weight associations weakened after adjustment.

Choosing an orbit for a satellite always comes with trade-offs. Very low Earth orbit (VLEO), between 100–450 km (62–280 miles), has distinct advantages. Remote-sensing cameras can take better pictures, communications and radar require less power, and atmospheric drag automatically cleans up dead satellites.

A team of researchers from University of Toronto Engineering has created a new type of dye-sensitized nanoparticle that can detect target chemicals at very low concentrations while also distinguishing between molecules with very similar shapes.

Have you ever wondered what Earth observation satellites see when they look down at the deep ocean or a dense tropical forest during the dead of night? The answer, for the most part, is nothing. Standard optical sensors require a steady stream of light to function, and in these photon-limited regions, they hit a hard physical boundary. But what if we could rewrite the rules of optical imaging? By borrowing techniques from quantum photonics, we can push beyond these classical limits and unlock a fundamentally new way to observe the darkest and most hidden environments on our planet.
