New Thermal Material Could Slash Data Center Cooling Demands
Data center cooling is energy-intensive, accounting for about 40% of overall data center energy use (around 8 terawatt-hours per year). Researchers have developed a new organic thermal interface material (TIM) that can substantially improve heat dissipation from electronic components, reducing the demand on active cooling technologies like fans and liquid cooling. The new TIM is […]
Cannabis Really Can Induce Sleep, And Now We Know Why
Researchers from the University of Sydney have confirmed that the cannabis ingredient cannabinol (CBN) can increase sleep in rats. CBN is a breakdown product of the main psychoactive compound in cannabis, THC. The researchers found that CBN and its metabolites extended periods of both non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in […]
