Scientists identify 37 recently active volcanic structures on Venus

"Our work shows that some of that interior heat is still able to reach the surface even today. Venus is clearly not so geologically dead or dormant as previously thought."

Two coronae, ring-like structures formed when hot material from deep inside the planet rises through the mantle and erupts through the crust, are observed on the surface of Venus in a 3-D rendition provided to Reuters July 20, 2020. The one of the left, named Aramaiti, is one of at least 37 coronae

Bar-Ilan University hones the power of multiple magnetic states

These types of advancements could be used towards storing data, magnetic sensing as well as neuromorphic computing.

Bar-Ilan University researchers have shown that relatively simple magnetic thin film structures of N crossing ellipses can support two to the power of 2N magnetic states -- much greater than previously thought -- and demonstrated switching between the states with spin currents.

TAU team controls terahertz waves to better detect cavities, explosives
