Preparing Europe in the 6G world
As Europe works to advance digital infrastructure, the world’s first 6G research programme, 6G Flagship, is committed to achieving a 6G-enabled digital world by the 2030s. Connectivity and progressive communication are European priorities to enable digital infrastructure to accommodate the ever-growing data generated by today’s digital world. Currently, the European Commission is focusing on achieving […]
Advanced control strategies for fusion energy devices
Fusion energy can provide clean and endless electricity, but stabilizing a fused energy device is extremely complicated. Upgrading the UK’s Fusion Machine Mast and Scientists working at the Dutch Institute have made significant advances in two important areas How can I spread strong heat evenly within the reactor? How can you control the amount of […]
AI Breakthrough converts fusion systems into reliable power
For decades, scientists have been following the promise of fusion power. It is a clean, virtually endless energy source that can convert the global power grid. However, controlling overheated plasma in a fusion reactor is one of the toughest scientific challenges of our time. A single failed sensor or missing data stream can confuse experiments, […]
CERN’s White Rabbits Promote new quantum network methods
Small and innovative experiments at CERN pave the way for new technologies in quantum networks and quantum cryptography. The goal of this experiment is to allow cern-born optical timing signals (which synchronize the device with ultra-precision for normal use in laboratory accelerators) to optimally transmit through optical fibers along with single photon signals from the […]
Digitalizing battery testing
Thor is a Horizon Europe project that develops predictive digital twins to accelerate battery design, performance and safety verification. Europe, Asia and the US are trapped in strategic competition to secure leadership in the energy transition value chain. Batteries are at the heart of this competition, supporting both the decarbonisation targets for fixed applications and […]
ESA launches a 50 million euro quantum communication mission
The European Space Agency (ESA) has taken an important step in advance of Quantum Communications, signing a 50 million euro deal with Aerospace giant Thales Alenia Space. The deal will begin the preliminary design phase for the Security and Cryptography (SAGA) mission, an ambitious satellite project that leverages quantum technology to ensure Europe’s most sensitive […]
Antarctic sea ice is emerging as an accelerator of global warming
The groundbreaking study provided a significant and previously underestimated relationship between Antarctica sea ice, cloud cover and global warming. This study shows that the current Antarctic sea ice range is larger than predicted by climate models, suggesting that more significant global warming can be expected in the coming decades. The study, led by Linus Vogt […]
At the edge of Europe, at the heart of 6G technology
Although Finland lives only 5 million people, it leads one of the most ambitious 6G programs in the world. The 6G Flagship, the first dedicated 6G research program, established the University of Oulu as a reference point for those asking what 6G is. The programme is within the Finland national flagship framework and supported by […]
Responsible AI and Big Data Innovation at GATE
Gate integrates digital twins, advanced machine learning and trustworthy data sharing infrastructure to enable sustainable urban, health and industry transformation. The GATE Institute is the first dedicated centre for big data and artificial intelligence (AI) excellence in Bulgaria and Eastern Europe, jointly funded by the European Commission (EC) and the Bulgarian government, and was established […]
The Rogue planet is increasing by 6 billion tons per second
In the vast, dark expanse of the universe, lonely wanderers experience dramatic growth. This is not a star, but a mysterious, injustice planet, a world that does not correspond to any sun, and is currently devouring material from those around us rather than devouring it. A groundbreaking new study at St. Andrews University captures this […]
