Facebook and the echo chamber: scientists examine how social media affects political views
While social media “echo chambers” certainly exist, they may not have as large of an effect on political polarization as previously assumed. Continue reading Facebook and the echo chamber: scientists examine how social media affects political views
Artificial DNA can replace your thumb drive
Scientists at ETH Zurich recently developed a storage architecture using DNA, where they fused DNA into everyday objects in order to store data. Continue reading Artificial DNA can replace your thumb drive
Digging through history: Theorists use old LHC data to search for new particles
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland, is the largest and most energetic particle collider in the world. Since it was activated in 2008, it has collided nearly a quadrillion protons. When particles collide they shatter, annihilate, and completely reorganize into a firework of new particles flying out in all directions, producing hundreds of millions of gigabytes of data. Physicists have used this data … Continue reading Digging through history: Theorists use old LHC data to search for new particles
