Winner of the CADE ATP System Competition and recipient of the Distinguished Paper Award For the first time in the history of the CADE ATP System Competition (CASC), a single automated theorem prover has achieved a clean sweep: VAMPIRE won all'eight competition divisions at CASC-30.

An astonishing world record has been set at ETH Zurich with support from TU Wien: glass particles reveal their quantum properties - without having to be brought to extremely low temperatures, as was previously the case.

A previously undiscovered attack allows fraudulent apps to take control of mobile phones - but the vulnerability can be closed.

A team at Harvard and TU Wien have invented a new tunable laser that uses a series of rings to smoothly emit many light wavelengths from a single chip.

How precise can a measurement result be when all'you have is a blurred image of an object? At TU Wien, the limits of what is possible were explored using artificial intelligence.

Many microorganisms can move in a goal oriented way in liquids. How do they do this without a complex nervous system? Research conducted at TU Wien provides explanations.

A surprising effect was discovered through a collaborative effort by researchers from TU Wien and institutions in Croatia, France, Poland, Singapore, Switzerland, and the US during the investigation

The nanomaterial MXene is used for battery technology or as a high-performance lubricant. Until now, its production was difficult and toxic.

What happens when captured CO2 is pumped into the ground? Highly sophisticated computer simulations now make it possible to predict its long-term behaviour.

Upcycling as a climate game-changer: A nanocatalyst has been produced at TU Wien based on spent batteries and aluminium foil residues, converting CO2 into valuable methane.

By combining organic and inorganic chemistry, scientists at TU Wien developed the innovative lubricant COK-47 - with remarkable capabilities.

TU Wien, the University of Innsbruck and the company qtlabs are working together on a major FFG-funded A millennia-old problem will finally be solved: ever since humans have been sending messages, people have been trying to keep these messages secret.

Zooming in to the "pixels of reality": the electron microscope helps us to do that. However, it is unsuited for particularly sensitive targets.

Nerve cells in the retina were analysed at TU Wien (Vienna) using microelectrodes. They show astonishingly stable behaviour - good news for retina implants.

TU Wien (Vienna) has developed a learning robot. If shown how to clean a sink, it can imitate human motions and adapt its knowledge flexibly to different situations.

TU Wien (Vienna) has succeeded in generating laser-synchronised ion pulses with a duration of well under 500 picoseconds, which can be used to observe chemical processes on material surfaces.
