Synopsis

The National Science Foundation (NSF) invites investigators at U.S. organizations to submit proposals to the Arctic Sciences Section in the Office of Polar Programs (OPP) within the Geosciences Directorate, to conduct research about the Arctic region.

The goal of this solicitation is to attract research proposals that advance a fundamental, process, and/or systems-level understanding of the Arctic’s rapidly changing natural environment, social and cultural systems, and, where appropriate, to improve our capacity to project future change. The Arctic Sciences Section supports research focused on the Arctic region and its connectivity with lower latitudes. The scientific scope is aligned with, but not limited to, research priorities outlined in the Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee (IARPC) five-year plan.

The Arctic Sciences Section coordinates with programs across NSF and with other federal and international partners to co-review and co-fund Arctic-related proposals as appropriate. The Arctic Sciences Section also

Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have created a groundbreaking quantum device that can measure 3D acceleration using ultracold atoms, something once thought nearly impossible. By chilling rubidium atoms to near absolute zero and splitting them into quantum superpositions, the team has built a compact atom interferometer guided by AI to decode acceleration patterns. While the sensor still lags behind traditional GPS and accelerometers, it’s poised to revolutionize navigation for vehicles like submarines or spacecraft potentially offering a timeless, atomic-based alternative to aging electronics.

Several attacks by Zionist regime

Print View Posted on: 14 June 2025

Event Date: 13 June 2025 Event Type: Other Event Location: Iran, Islamic Republic of, Esfahan Nuclear Facilities INES Rating: Not provided

Despite the prohibition of attacks on nuclear facilities and the fact that such actions contravene all international norms and principles of international law, the Esfahan nuclear facilities – which have been under continuous IAEA inspection and verification measures – was attacked several times by the Zionist regime on June 13. Because of the sensitivity of information that may be used by the enemy, no information can be provided about the on-site condition. No increase in off-site radiation levels has been reported as of this time. Further investigation is still ongoing.
