    Processed food intake assortativity in the personal networks of older adults

    In our study, we deployed a personal network research design38 to collect data from a sample of individuals living in a small Romanian rural locality. As our data are not longitudinal, we limit the scope of our study to assortativity detection….

  • Gas injection setup in new fusion system is guided by public-private research

    Gas injection setup in new fusion system is guided by public-private research

    When the plasma inside a fusion system starts to misbehave, it needs to be quickly cooled to prevent damage to the device. Researchers at Commonwealth Fusion Systems believe the best bet is a massive gas injection: essentially, a well-timed,…

    Listen to quantum atoms talk together thanks to acoustics

    What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by the limitations of quantum mechanics when trying to study densely packed atoms? At EPFL, you get a metamaterial, an engineered material that exhibits exotic properties.

    That frustrated…
