Single optical element combines soft X-ray imaging and spectroscopy

An international research team from Germany, Switzerland and Japan has demonstrated in a recent study that a single reflection zone plate (RZP) can perform both soft X-ray imaging and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) mapping. The approach could simplify future instruments that need to determine both where structures are located in a material and how their electronic properties vary.

Anthropic Files For IPO: Can Claude AI Giant Justify The Cost Of The AI Boom?

Anthropic IPO: The company behind Claude AI is moving closer to a potential stock market debut, filing its registration statement with US regulators and planning a Nasdaq listing under the ticker symbol ANT.

The incoming iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2 updates enable Apple's Hearing Aid and Hearing Test features on the AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods Pro 3 in five Canadian provinces : Alberta, British Columbia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Saskatchewan. The features are still not available in any other provinces, but Ontario is reportedly about to change a law that will pave the way for the features to launch there. The Hearing Test and Hearing Aid features are supported in select provinces in Canada on AirPods Pro 2 and later with the latest firmware when paired with a compatible iPhone or iPad with iOS 27.2 or iPadOS 27.2 and later, says Apple. iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2 are currently in beta and could be released as soon as today. With the clinical-grade Hearing Aid feature, AirPods Pro 2 and later can amplify the sound around you. Apple says the feature, available at no additional cost, is intended for adults with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss. Meanwhile, the five-minute Hearing Test allows adults to identify if they have hearing loss by measuring their ability to hear different frequencies of sound. Afterwards, the results will show a hearing loss classification and recommended next steps. The two features first launched in the U.S. and select other countries in October 2024 . A third Hearing Protection feature on AirPods Pro 2 and later was already available in Canada.

15 Years Of Ra.One: Anubhav Sinha looks back at the film that pushed the boundaries of Indian VFX: 2011 wasn't ready for it

Directed by Anubhav Sinha and produced by Gauri Khan under Red Chillies Entertainment, Ra.One was released worldwide on October 26, 2011, during Diwali. Starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Arjun Rampal, the sci-fi film combined superhero storytelling with visual effects and action sequences that were ambitious for Indian cinema at the time. The film set box office opening records upon its release and went on to earn over Rs 200 crores worldwide. It also received recognition for its technical work, winning honours at major award ceremonies, including the National Film Awards and the Filmfare Awards. Fifteen years later, Ra.One continues to be discussed for its scale and technological ambition. While the film attempted to bring a high-tech superhero universe to Indian screens at a time when the genre was still developing, its approach to visual effects and computer-generated imagery has remained an important part of conversations around Indian sci-fi cinema. To mark the film's 15th anniversary, director Anubhav Sinha and Benaras Mediaworks took to social media to look back at the journey of creating the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer. Reflecting on the challenges and ambition behind the project, Sinha wrote, 2011 wasn't ready for it. Somewhere between magic and madness, we made the future. Released at a time when large-scale visual effects-driven superhero films were still relatively uncommon in India, Ra.One sought to explore a different kind of cinematic storytelling. From its futuristic costumes and CGI-heavy sequences to its action set-pieces, the film represented an attempt to expand the technical possibilities of mainstream Hindi cinema. The project required the team to work on a scale that was still emerging within the Indian film industry. Its ambitions extended beyond a conventional superhero narrative, with an emphasis on creating a distinct visual world for audiences. Over the years, Ra.One has continued to attract attention for its technical experimentation and its attempt to bring a science-fiction spectacle to Indian audiences. As the film completes 15 years, Sinha's reflection revisits the ambition behind a project that sought to push the boundaries of visual effects and superhero storytelling in Indian cinema.

Better Performances Will Lead To Better Pay, Says Sammy Ahead Of WIs Tests Against Banglades

World Test Championship: West Indies head coach Daren Sammy has urged his Test players to let their on-field displays do the talking in the fight for better pay, adding that a top-five finish in the World Test Championship (WTC) would bring additional financial rewards. Last month, Cricket West Indies (CWI) announced a 25 per cent cut in the players retainer fees as part of a broader set of measures it described as a comprehensive counterattack against all the challenges we face financially, developmentally and competitively. Sammy, however, said the decision had not dented the morale of the players on the ongoing tour of the subcontinent, by pointing out the white-ball sides recent showing in India. West Indies will meet Bangladesh in the two-match series starting on Wednesday. If you look at the way we played in the India series when the news was put to the players, how they responded shows the drive, the passion, the willingness to help turn around West Indies cricket. I think theres reality and theres understanding where you are as a professional, as a board, and theres no secret where we are, obviously financially. My word to the guys, especially this World Test Championship, you finish in the top five theres extra incentives. ICC has invested a lot of money in the World Test Championship in terms of prize money, and its an opportunity for our boys to come up from the number eight that we have finished last two cycles. I dont think its a conversation thats in the dressing room now, but we are aware. I have challenged the guys to put ourselves in a better position to negotiate and attract sponsors by the performances we put on the field. I thought the white-ball teams did that extremely well in India and hopefully we could do that as a red-ball team here in Bangladesh, Sammy told reporters in a press conference on Monday. The West Indies head into their final series of the 2025-27 WTC cycle unbeaten in Test series this year, having beaten Sri Lanka 1-0 and drawn 1-1 with Pakistan. Sammy saw that results as a sign the team is moving in the right direction. The expectations are always there. The way we have played Test cricket this year, we have not lost a series this year. Its a long time we have gone through a year without losing a series, and this is our last series in the World Test Championship. The message to the guys: give it all. Ten possible days of Test cricket left in this cycle for us and just go out there and give it your all. Whatever motivates you, use that to go out and get performances. We have prepared really well, he added. Sammy also credited the Test squads preparatory camp in Chennai for putting the side in good shape for the series. It is something we as a board have really looked at, giving guys the best possible chance to prepare. We had the ODI team there and we thought Chennai has an amazing facility. The message to the guys: give it all. Ten possible days of Test cricket left in this cycle for us and just go out there and give it your all. Whatever motivates you, use that to go out and get performances. We have prepared really well, he added. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS
