Ever wondered how many configurations a #Cellular #Automata (#CA) system has? A thread: #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter Jason J. Bramburger @adamatzky

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.

Very happy to share the acceptance of one of my favorite projects as a graduate student in Soft Matter doi.org/10.1039/D2SM01… We explored a reversible protocol to trap active Marangoni surfers via a perturbation. More details in the thread. (1/6)

Check out this week's front cover article, How to capture active Marangoni surfers led by Ishant Tiwari Ishant Tiwari and P. Parmananda doi.org/10.1039/D2SM01…

Carl Sagan made this statement during his last interview, made with Charlie Rose on May 27, 1996. A strong concern about the state of science literacy in modern society. This is why science education is so important [full video: buff.ly/3BaU4f0]

So you’re telling me the human body is a water cooled supercomputer with super high resolution, high dynamic range imaging (eyes) spatial audio (ears) and near real-time data processing from all the sensors (brain)?

A remarkably creative new paper describing "trajectoids" -- shapes that would trace any given infinite periodic trajectory when rolling down a slope. And, this line in the abstract -- "Our study is motivated largely by fundamental curiosity..." !! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Chaos: On relaxation times of heteroclinic dynamics pubs.aip.org/aip/cha/articl…

Our recent work exploring the relaxation times in networks of Heteroclinic units, (carried out at Constructor University, published in AIP Publishing Chaos) threw up a counter intuitive finding. Heteroclinic cycles that are more complex in phase space are harder to perturb.
