#annealing — Public Fediverse posts

Newbie blacksmithing attempt at hardening my splitting wedge, which seemed a bit soft (the old Birch gave it a burr).

Filed that burr off, threw it into the sauna fire until red hot, then into an old pot of prehistoric tractor oil, flames and sizzling, etc.

Then back into the fire, guessing the temperature before remembering I have a thermal imaging phone in my pocket and back outside to cool down over night.

No idea if I did this right, but will find out :)

#Annealing In #Space: How #NASA Saved #JunoCam In Orbit Around #Jupiter
Although the #radiation damage to JCM was obvious a few dozen orbits in – and well past its original mission’s 34 orbits – the big question was exactly what was being damaged by the radiation, and whether something could be done to circumvent or fix it. Engineers tried annealing the affected part by cranking up one of the JCM’s heaters to a balmy 25°C!

Happy to announce that the D-Wave #annealing #quantum computer remains at JSC after its purchase by Forschungszentrum Jülich. We’ve successfully hosted and used the D-Wave system for three years now. The Jülich Unified Infrastructure for Quantum computing (JUNIQ) at JSC gains complete access to all aspects of the system, allowing us to integrate it in new ways for new purposes, e.g., connecting it to the #exascale #supercomputer #JUPITER soon.

1/3 Friday #LK99 and #Superconductivity Update:  Submissions/returns on #arXiv  for LK-99 are at 37 (more general search returns will be higher).Thus far no additional findings of ambient superconductivity are noted. This paper from a Chinese group hit several points to look for in the context of #Annealing and defects that may be unique to particular samples:

Different phase leads to different transport behavior in Pb9Cu(PO4)6O compounds
