An artist's illustration of a neutron star emitting a radio beam from within its magnetic environment. As the radio waves travel through dense plasma within the galaxy, they split into multiple paths, causing the observed signal to flicker in brightness.

MIT engineers have developed a method to seamlessly stack electronic layers to create faster, denser, more powerful computer chips. The team deposits semiconducting particles (in pink) as triangles within confined squares, to create high-quality electronic elements, directly atop other semiconducting layers (shown in layers of purple, blue, and green).

An artist’s illustration depicts a primordial black hole (at left) flying past, and briefly “wobbling” the orbit of Mars (at right), with the sun in the background. MIT scientists say such a wobble could be detectable by today’s instruments. Credits:Credit: Image by Benjamin Lehmann, using SpaceEngine @ Cosmographic Software LLC.

Early dark energy could have triggered the formation of numerous bright galaxies, very early in the universe, a new study finds. The mysterious unknown force could have caused early seeds of galaxies (depicted at left) to sprout many more bright galaxies (at right) than theory predicts. Credits:Image: Josh Borrow/Thesan Team
