Around 5,000 years ago, people in what is now Iran began turning dull stone into shining metal. By heating copper ore until ...

A new computational model suggests that Uranus' and Neptune's cores may be less icy than their "ice giant" nickname suggests.

Step inside the strange world of a superfluid, a liquid that can flow endlessly without friction, defying the common-sense ...

In geometry, there are surfaces that do without an inside or outside—and some need at least four dimensions to exist ...

Humans can detect buried objects without touching them, sensing faint pressure ripples in sand. Scientists are calling this ...

A new concept for energy transfer between gravitational waves and light. When massive cosmic objects such as black holes merge or neutron stars crash into one another, they can produce gravitational ...

It’s from another Solar System, so of course it’s anomalous.” That refrain from planetary scientists has seldom been more apt than in the case of 3I/ATLAS, the third confirmed interstellar object to ...

Abstract: 3D object detection in LiDAR point clouds faces significant challenges in sparse point clouds and unfamiliar environments. Existing methods often rely on simple multi-layer perceptrons or ...

This paper proposes an appearance based method for keypoint selection, with the goal of improving pose estimation and supporting downstream tasks. In conventional pose estimation pipelines, keypoints ...
