Swedish firm aims for 100x plasma confinement boost in fusion reactor

Posted by in category: nuclear energy

A Sweden-based firm has launched a plasma confinement project to achieve commercially viable fusion energy.

The TauEB project by Novatron Fusion Group aims to revolutionize plasma confinement and energy containment in fusion reactors.

Novatron’s project will introduce a first-of-its-kind integration of three physical confinement techniques, which will include Magnetic Confinement, Ambipolar Plugging, and Ponderomotive Confinement.

Vision Embedding Comparison for Image Similarity Search: EfficientNet vs. ViT vs. VINO vs. CLIP vs. BLIP2

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Author(s): Yuki Shizuya Originally published on Towards AI. Photo by gilber franco on UnsplashRecently, I needed to research image similarity search. I wonder if there are any differences among embeddings based on the architecture training methods. However, few blogs compare embeddings among several models. So, in this blog, I will compare the vision embeddings of EfficientNet [1], ViT [2], DINO-v2 [3], CLIP [4], and BLIP-2 [5] for image similarity search using the Flickr dataset [6]. I will mainly use Huggingface and Faiss libraries for implementation. First, I will briefly introduce each deep learning model. Next, I will show you the code implementation and the comparison results.

A Tale of Two Congenital Lesions: A Case Report of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia and Congenital Heart Disease Managed by Successful Surgical Outcome With Review of the Literature (Bhende-Pathak Hernia)

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a diaphragmatic defect that is usually situated on the left side in the posterolateral region, named a Bochdalek hernia (BH), which allows abdominal organs to herniate into the thoracic cavity. BH is a prevalently observed birth anomaly in infants but is rare in adults. Right-sided BH that involves the colon is exceptionally rare, and no prior cases have described ileocecal appendix involvement. Here, we present a case of a preschooler with a right-sided BH and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), requiring distinct surgical approaches: left open thoracotomy for PDA ligation and right open thoracotomy for CDH repair. Surgical intervention is associated with reduced morbidity and mortality, favorable long-term outcomes, and a low recurrence rate, irrespective of the selected approach.

Dark Matter May Have Existed Before The Big Bang, Study Finds

Posted by in categories: cosmology, physics

In case dark matter didn’t seem mysterious enough, a new study proposes that it could have arisen before the Big Bang.

Conventional thinking goes that the Big Bang was the beginning of everything – matter, dark matter, space, energy, all of it. After the event itself, the Universe went through a period of cosmic inflation, which saw its size swell by a factor of 10 septillion within an unfathomable fraction of a second.

But some theories suggest that this inflation period actually occurred before what we call the Big Bang. And now, physicists at the University of Texas (UT) at Austin have proposed that dark matter was formed during this brief window.
