Chaos Detected at the Nanoscale tu_wien NatureComms
By Hussain AhmedMar 1 2023Reviewed by Megan Craig, M.Sc. By examining this model, researchers hope to gain insight into the behavior of compartmentalized reactions in nanosystems.
Remarkably, compartmentalization may be found in non-living systems as well as living organisms. For instance, oscillatory reactions in microemulsions, particle arrays, and gels are instances of compartmentalization in a non-living environment. However, current models that use polycrystalline metal foil cannot study individual compartments in detail. To address this issue, researchers have turned to the apex of a catalytically active metal tip as a model system.
The researchers varied the temperature and hydrogen pressure during the experiments and observed mono-frequential and multi-frequential self-sustained kinetic oscillations.

Neural mechanisms underlying the hierarchical construction of perceived aesthetic value - Nature CommunicationsHow the brain computes the value of complex stimuli such as visual art remains poorly understood. Here, the authors use computational models and fMRI to show that this process involves an integration over low- and high-level features across visual, parietal, and frontal cortical areas.
