The Earth is surrounded by an invisible barrier that was thought to prevent highly energetic electrons from reaching closer to our planet. But in 2024, Japan's Arase space probe detected these electrons well inside the barrier. Now, research led by Nagoya University has found evidence that the electrons were accelerated locally rather than infiltrating from outer radiation belts.

When simulations fall short, this spectrometer learns for itself
An NMR spectrometer can reveal molecular structure down to the atomic level, but weak signals limit what it can see. Now, Aarhus University researchers have used AI to let the spectrometer learn the best pulse sequence directly from the sample.
