ASKAP can image large swathes of the night sky faster and images or a large field of view; now they can do both. What is the GASKAP survey looking for? GASKAP is providing a super high-resolution view of how interstellar clouds form and evolve, maturing to the point of making stars,” says Snežana. What is LGLBS looking for?

A network is a mathematical model used to describe relationships (known as edges) between individuals (known as nodes),” explains Min. At Rutgers University in the US, Dr Min Xu has developed a model that can unpick the history of networks such as these, helping everyone from epidemiologists to counter-terrorism investigators.

But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. There were still mathematical loose ends, as well as issues such as its application to living systems and to systems involving gravity.

But in a multicomputational system the key idea is that states can have multiple successors—and tracing their behavior defines a whole multiway graph of branching and merging threads of time. For games and puzzles are normally at some fundamental level discrete—especially in the way that they involve discrete branching of possibilities.
