53 Friction without contact discovered as magnetic forces break a 300-year-old law

ScienceDaily
ScienceDaily 2 place · today 05:17 EDT

Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, their internal forces compete, causing constant rearrangements that dramatically increase resistance at certain distances. This creates a surprising peak in friction instead of a steady rise, breaking a long-standing physics law.

Новые пути наверх

В IT-сообществе принято считать, что мы живем в золотой век меритократии. Ты учишь стек, приносишь пользу бизнесу, растешь в грейдах и капитализируешь свои знания. Но если присмотреться к трансформации рынков за последние 10 лет, становится заметно: старые правила «капитализма свободных агентов» заменяются чем-то, что больше напоминает неосословную иерархию.Сегодня ты не просто создаешь продукт — ты арендуешь право на существование у владельца инфраструктуры.

Еда из насекомых: дешевле ли кормить человечество сверчками и мухами?

Сейчас оптимизируют все и везде, и не только в ИТ: логистику, энергетику, производство, медицину. Даже в сельском хозяйстве чаще начинают считать эффективность почти как инженеры: сколько ресурсов уходит, сколько получается продукта и можно ли систему сделать быстрее, дешевле и компактнее.И вот в привычном агропроме появляются… сверчки, мухи или львинки. И они уже даже используются в пищевой промышленности. Пока в основном в кормах для животных, но не только. Первыми под прицелом,... Read more

Уровень зрелости проектного менеджера и что с ним делать

Методологий проектного управления много, а работают они не у всех. Одна команда запускает проект за пару недель и далее успешно его реализует в соответствии с требованиями заказчика. В то время как другая буксует месяцами на тех же инструментах и практиках. Этот тезис важен также в контексте зрелости руководителя \ менеджера проекта и среды, в которой он реализует проект. Суперпрофессиональный менеджер проекта будет далеко неэффективен в незрелой системе управления проектом. Но... Read more

A new detection method called “Jerk” could dramatically improve how scientists forecast volcanic eruptions. By using a single broadband seismometer, the system can detect extremely subtle ground movements caused by magma pushing underground—often hours before an eruption begins. Tested for more than a decade at the Piton de la Fournaise volcano on La Réunion, the tool successfully predicted 92% of eruptions between 2014 and 2023, sometimes giving up to eight... Read more

A new AI framework called THOR is transforming how scientists calculate the behavior of atoms inside materials. Instead of relying on slow simulations that take weeks of supercomputer time, the system uses tensor network mathematics and machine-learning models to solve the problem directly. The approach can compute key thermodynamic properties hundreds of times faster while preserving accuracy. Researchers say this could accelerate discoveries in materials science, physics, and chemistry. Read more

Scientists at MIT have discovered that a little-known protein called intelectin-2 plays a powerful double role in defending the gut. The protein strengthens the mucus layer that lines the gastrointestinal tract while also trapping and disabling harmful bacteria that try to break through. By binding to sugars on both mucus molecules and bacterial surfaces, intelectin-2 forms a protective barrier and can even destroy microbes, including some that resist antibiotics. Read more

Researchers have developed a tiny antibody that can find a common cancer protein and make tumors light up during PET scans. In tests with mice, tumors containing the protein EphA2 glowed clearly when the antibody was used. This could help doctors quickly identify patients who may benefit from new targeted cancer treatments. The method may also provide a faster and less invasive alternative to traditional testing.

Scientists have discovered that cells can sense far beyond the surfaces they touch. While individual cancer cells can probe about 10 microns ahead by tugging on surrounding collagen fibers, clusters of normal epithelial cells can combine forces to detect layers as far as 100 microns away. This long-range “depth sensing” helps cells decide where to migrate. Understanding how it works could reveal new targets to stop cancer from spreading. Read more

Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have uncovered a new way to manipulate unusual magnetic states by exploiting “frustration” inside a crystal’s atomic structure. The team discovered a rare system where two different kinds of frustration—magnetic and electronic bond frustration—coexist and interact. By coupling these competing effects, researchers may be able to control exotic quantum states, potentially unlocking new ways to manipulate entangled spins for future quantum technologies. Read more

New research shows that sourdough fermentation does more than make bread rise—it transforms wheat fibers in unexpected ways. Scientists found that enzymes already present in wheat, activated by the sourdough’s acidic environment, break down key fibres called arabinoxylans. This process may influence the bread’s texture, digestibility, and flavor. Some microbes even create buttery or subtly sweet notes that give sourdough its distinctive taste. Read more
