A quantum memory device can store information at room temperature – a step towards building a quantum internet that could transmit secure data across fibre-optic cables
A robot made from magnetic fluid can be made smaller, thinner, or directed to break up with special magnets, which could be useful for delivering drugs into the body
After colliding with a tilted wall, air bubbles in water execute a backflip and hit the wall for a second time because they get caught in their own wake. These acrobatics could be harnessed for cleaning
Ants prefer not to make a collective raft when on water. However, once there are 10 insects near each other, the so-called Cheerios effect pushes them together and is too strong to counteract
Researchers have entangled atomic clocks allowing them to synchronise them more accurately. Such entangled clocks could be used study dark matter and gravity more precisely
