MIT philosopher Sam Berstler analyzes the social dynamics accompanying open secrets.

The Power of Silence in Open Secrets Shapes Workplaces, Communities

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

Early dark energy could resolve cosmology’s two biggest puzzles
