Have scientists have grossly underestimated the effects of air pollution on global warming?

Israeli researcher claims his calculations show scientists have grossly underestimated the effects of air pollution. The world’s scientific community has known for a long time that global warming is caused by manmade emissions in the form of greenhouse gases, while global cooling is caused by air pollution in the form of aerosols. In a new study

A terahertz computer chip that will make computers run 100 times faster gets much closer

Following three years of extensive research, Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HU) physicist Dr. Uriel Levy and his team have created technology that will enable our computers—and all optic communication devices—to run 100 times faster through terahertz microchips. Until now, two major challenges stood in the way of creating the terahertz microchip: overheating and scalability. However,
