Nonetheless, Piketty book is important because of the way he has clarified the magnitude of the problem and its dangers.

In this way, complex structures can be created by combining building blocks under natural circumstances. This kind of self-assembly mechanism dominates at the molecular scale,
so chemists have been looking for ways to speed up colloidal self-assembly. Today, Bingqing Shen at ESPCI (the Paris Institute of technology) in France and a few buddies say theye found an entirely new way to assemble structures on this scale that should reduce manufacturing time by orders of magnitude.
The new approach is to place the particles in a fluid flow and see whether this helps them assemble.

In this way, Shen and co say production rates could be increased by orders of magnitude. own the road,
Shen and co say that it should be possible to change the droplet chemistry in such a way to manipulate the physical properties of the bulk material in ways that are currently difficult or impossible to do.
But they might eventually offer a more powerful and efficient way to run software like Brainos.
In a mental flash he had pictured a strand of DNA threading its way through a microscopic pore.

But evidence is lacking that it uses that physics in the way needed to unlock the huge speedups promised by a quantum computer.
Even so it has long been considered a relatively lousy way to store energy because of its low efficiency about 65 percent of the energy in the original electricity is lost.

The best way to resolve this conflict would be to make changes to U s. legislation that balance the interests of companies and law enforcement while taking the privacy expectations of individuals into account.
The problem is that a field generated this way decays exponentially with distance from the generating coil so it only works with devices close to the skin s surface.
Poon and her team found a way to use electromagnetic induction through biological tissue without that exponential decay.
there are indirect ways to extract datao-called ide channelattacks. Previous research efforts have found, for example,

#Terahertz Chip Identifies Short Strands of DNA One of the more significant practical challenges currently occupying molecular biologists is to find better ways of identifying short strands of DNA.
and a few pals say they have invented an entirely new way of identifying oligonucleotides using terahertz radiation.
Chernev and co s idea is based on the way these molecules resonate. They say that the sequence of bases in an oligonucleotide determines the way in
which the strand resonates at frequencies in the terahertz range. Their idea is to capture a single oligonucleotide in a cavity filled with terahertz waves that stimulates this resonant behaviour.

#Stacking Cells Could Make Solar as Cheap as Natural gas When experts talk about future solar cells they usually bring up exotic materials and physical phenomena.
a cheap fast way to stack cells a proprietary way to electrically connect cells and a new kind of glue for holding the cells together.
The conventional way to stack semiconductors is to grow layers on top of each other. But not all semiconductors can be combined this way
because their crystalline structure doesn t allow it (see Adaptive Material Could Cut the Cost of Solar in Half).
Semprius grows semiconductor materials in the conventional way but also stacks several different combinations resulting in a solar panel that can capture more energy from sunlight.
Engineers have worked for decades on ways to generate power by harvesting radio signals from the air, a ubiquitous resource thanks to radio, TV
But although enough energy can be collected that way to run low-powered circuits, the power required to actively transmit data is significantly higher.
The Washington researchers got around that challenge by finding a way to have the devices communicate without having to actively transmit.

Theye created a mathematical model that includes the effects of social pressure allowing them to simulate the way behavior spreads through societies with different levels of individualism.
It shows that differences in culture affect the dynamics of social spreading processes in a measurable way.
That will be crucial for the way that governments design strategies to help people stop smoking. nterventions designed to discourage smoking should be tailored diferently in societies or social groups
