New Dark Matter Simulation Could Change How Galaxies Are Thought to Evolve
Scientists at the Perimeter Institute have developed a new simulation code, KISS-SIDM, to study self-interacting dark matter. The tool shows how rare dark matter interactions can heat and collapse galaxy halos, potentially explaining dense galactic cores and the early formation of supermassive black holes.

Indian Researchers Find a New Technique to Control Defects in MOF-Based Supercapacitors
Researchers at the Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST), Mohali, have developed a new laser-based method to precisely control defects in MOF-based supercapacitors. This technique significantly enhances energy storage performance without altering the MOF’s crystal structure. By adjusting laser power, scientists increased the electrode's...

AI Algorithm Used to Improve Predictability of Indian Summer Monsoons: How it Works
An AI algorithm developed by the Institute of Advanced Study in Science and Technology (IASST), Guwahati, is capable of increasing predictability of the Indian Summer Monsoons (ISMR) 18 months before the season begins. The technology uses AI to understand the relationship between ISMR and tropical thermocline patterns from 150 years of simulations....
