The cover shows the feather-like wings of the tiny beetle Paratuposa placentis. How fast an animal can fly is usually dictated by its size: the larger the animal, the faster it flies. But at just 395 micrometres big, P. placentis bucks this trend by flying as fast as insects three times its size. In this week’s issue, Alexey Polilov and his colleagues reveal how it achieves such a feat. The researchers generated 3D reconstructions of the structure and motion of the beetle’s wings. They found that the insect moves its light, bristled wings in a very broad figure-of-eight loop and that the overall amplitude of its wing strokes is increased. The team suggests that the adaptations could help to explain the evolutionary success of extremely small insects.
封面展示了小甲蟲 Paratuposa placentis 的羽毛狀翅膀。 動物能飛多快通常取決于它的體型:動物越大,飛得越快。 但只有 395 微米大的 P. placentis 逆勢而行,飛行速度相當于其三倍大小的昆蟲。 在本周的期刊中,Alexey Polilov 和他的同事揭示了它是如何實現(xiàn)這一壯舉的。 研究人員對甲蟲翅膀的結構和運動進行了 3D 重建。 他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這種昆蟲以非常寬的 8 字形循環(huán)移動其輕盈的剛毛翅膀,并且其翅膀擊打的整體幅度增加了。 該團隊表示,這些適應性可能有助于解釋極小昆蟲的成功進化。

推動力
Many potential applications for artificial intelligence require making real-time decisions. Car racing, in which drivers must undertake complex tactical manoeuvres while controlling their vehicle at its performance limits, represents just such a challenge. In this week’s issue, Peter Wurman and his colleagues present an AI agent called Gran Turismo Sophy (GT Sophy) that can outcompete world champion-level human players in the PlayStation 4 racing game Gran Turismo Sport. The researchers used deep reinforcement learning to teach GT Sophy how to race. GT Sophy subsequently won head-to-head competitions against four of the world’s best Gran Turismo Sport drivers, racing over three car and track combinations. The team suggests the results could improve simulations used to train drivers and could also have applications in systems such as aerial drones and self-driving vehicles.
人工智能的許多潛在應用都需要做出實時決策。 在賽車中,駕駛員必須在將車輛控制在其性能極限的同時進行復雜的戰(zhàn)術操作,這就是這樣一種挑戰(zhàn)。 在本周的雜志中,Peter Wurman 和他的同事介紹了一個名為 Gran Turismo Sophy (GT Sophy) 的 AI 代理,它可以在 PlayStation 4 賽車游戲 Gran Turismo Sport 中擊敗世界冠軍級別的人類玩家。 研究人員使用深度強化學習來教 GT Sophy 如何比賽。 GT Sophy 隨后贏得了與四位世界上最好的 Gran Turismo Sport 車手的正面交鋒,比賽涉及三種汽車和賽道組合。 該團隊表示,這些結果可以改進用于培訓駕駛員的模擬,還可以應用于空中無人機和自動駕駛汽車等系統(tǒng)。

看見紅移
Einstein’s general theory of relativity predicts that Earth’s gravity will sufficiently distort space-time so that clocks at different distances from the planet will tick at different rates — an effect called gravitational redshift. In this week’s issue, Tobias Bothwell, Jun Ye and their colleagues demonstrate this effect at a sub-millimetre scale. The researchers use a cloud of ultracold strontium atoms, effectively creating a series of atomic clocks. As illustrated on the cover, the atoms are trapped in pancake-like optical traps and then interrogated by a laser. The team was able to observe a linear change in frequency — the redshift — from one side of the cloud to the other, showing that each atomic clock was ticking at a slightly different rate.
愛因斯坦的廣義相對論預測,地球的引力會充分扭曲時空,因此距地球不同距離的時鐘將以不同的速率滴答作響——這種效應稱為引力紅移。 在本周的期刊中,Tobias Bothwell、Jun Ye 和他們的同事在亞毫米尺度上展示了這種效應。 研究人員使用超冷鍶原子云,有效地創(chuàng)建了一系列原子鐘。 如封面所示,原子被困在薄餅狀的光阱中,然后被激光詢問。 該團隊能夠觀察到頻率的線性變化——紅移——從云的一側到另一側,表明每個原子鐘的滴答速度略有不同。

Omicron & 抗體
The cover shows human bronchial cells infected with SARS-CoV-2, captured using a scanning electron microscope. In this week’s issue, a collection of six papers reveals key information about the ability of the highly infectious Omicron variant to evade existing vaccines. Since it was identified last November, Omicron has spread around the globe at a remarkable rate. Together, the papers in this issue show that Omicron’s high level of mutations allows it to dodge many elements of the immune response raised against it. Crucially, however, vaccines do retain some efficacy, albeit at a reduced level, while booster shots greatly enhance protection against infection and serious illness.
封面顯示感染了 SARS-CoV-2 的人類支氣管細胞,使用掃描電子顯微鏡拍攝。 在本周的期刊中,六篇論文的合集揭示了有關高傳染性 Omicron 變體逃避現(xiàn)有疫苗能力的關鍵信息。 自去年 11 月被發(fā)現(xiàn)以來,Omicron 以驚人的速度在全球傳播。 總之,本期的論文表明,Omicron 的高水平突變使其能夠躲避針對它產(chǎn)生的免疫反應的許多因素。 然而,至關重要的是,疫苗確實保留了一些效力,盡管水平有所降低,而加強針大大增強了對感染和嚴重疾病的保護。
