Friday Squid Blogging: On SQUIDS

Source

A good tutorial : But we can go beyond the polarization of electrons and really leverage the electron waviness. By interleaving thin layers of superconducting and normal materials, we can make the quantum electronic equivalents of transistors and diodes such as Superconducting Tunnel Junctions (SJTs) and Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices …

Friday Squid Blogging: Squids Don’t Like Pile-Driving Noises

New research : Pile driving occurs during construction of marine platforms, including offshore windfarms, producing intense sounds that can adversely affect marine animals. We quantified how a commercially and economically important squid ( Doryteuthis pealeii : Lesueur 1821) responded to pile driving sounds recorded from a windfarm installation within this species’ habitat …
