Faster, smaller, smarter and more energy-efficient chips for everything from consumer electronics to big data to brain-inspired computing could soon be on the way after…
Texas Advanced Computing Center’s Stampede2 supercomputer simulates 3D structure of vortex breakdown with combustion. Lightning struck a bourbon warehouse, setting fire to a cache of…
Still from an animation of the inspiral of a binary black hole with a 128:1 mass ratio showing the beginning of the final burst of…
The soil pulls water out of the air during cooler, humid periods at night and then releases it when activated by solar energy during the…
At the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, there were high hopes that hot summer temperatures could reduce its spread. Although summer didn’t bring widespread relief,…
The number of virus strains present in each zip code in Houston during the second wave of COVID-19 cases in summer 2020. Number of strains…
