These join slightly more mature — yet still unproven — universal memories such as magnetoresistive RAM (MRAM), which uses magnetic polarization to store information permanently on a device's microprocessor, and «phase change» memory, which stores data in a glassy substance called chalcogenide as it is heated and its atoms are rearranged.
Dust grains in the Galaxy could imprint a similar polarization pattern in the CMB as gravitational waves can, but based on several different predictions of the galactic contribution the researchers concluded that their data was more likely to originate from primordial gravitational waves.
Scientists analyzing this data have assumed that the polarization of photons in the CMB is not affected by the gravitational field in the universe, which is true only if electromagnetic symmetry exists.
Because this angle dictates how much gravitational - wave energy is emitted in Earth's direction, combining polarization with other data allowed researchers to derive a more precise estimate of total energy released by the event and so reduce the error in their distance estimate.
The researchers report in today's issue of Nature that they used their scheme to write data in three colors and two polarizations in the same physical space.
The system allows data to be recorded in five dimensions — three dimensions in space (data is stored in gold nanorods at multiple levels in the disc and in four different shapes), plasmonic - controlled multi-color encoding **, and light - polarization encoding.

We worried that Donald Trump's support for charter schools and school choice would make those issues toxic on the left; growing polarization would sound the death knell for any hope of centrism and bipartisanship, both of which have been essential for the ed - reform project for the better part of two decades; and populist attacks on data and reason would make it that much harder for our arguments to win the day.
One of the larger surprises from the data was the lack of age polarization in the use of e-readers.
Keep in mind, also, that the data are measured over a time period that largely predates the polarization related to global warming — so using that study as a way to confirm assertions about the impact of the climate wars on public trust in scientists is motivated reasoning in its purest form.
