Very Massive Stars Blow Away Outer Layers in Powerful Winds Before Black Hole Collapse
Massive stars may lose much more mass than expected before collapsing into black holes. A new study reveals that their powerful stellar winds strip outer layers early, reshaping theories of star evolution, black hole formation, and gravitational wave events. This research challenges previous models and helps explain observed features of stars like ...

CSIRO Uses Quantum AI to Revolutionize Semiconductor Design
In a global first, researchers at Australia’s CSIRO used quantum machine learning to enhance semiconductor design, outperforming classical AI models. By modeling Ohmic resistance in GaN transistors, the team built a hybrid quantum–classical model using just 5 qubits. This Quantum Kernel-Aligned Regressor revealed subtle fabrication patterns tha...

Mars Dust Devils May Spark Lightning, Might Pose Risks to Rovers: Study
A new computer-modeling study reveals that dust devils on Mars—swirling columns of dust and air—may become electrically charged enough to spark lightning-like discharges. Led by researcher Varun Sheel, the study simulates how dry Martian conditions and frictional collisions between dust grains can generate strong electric fields inside these vo...
