Stars like our sun may maintain the same rotation pattern for life, contrary to 45 years of theoretical predictions
Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan have conducted the most detailed simulation of the interior of stars and disproved a theory scientists have believed f...
Study finds water oversight failures at California dairies
A Stanford Law report reveals California's inadequate monitoring of dairies and feedlots, highlighting the need for stronger regulatory enforcement to protect g...
Largest known Mesozoic crocodyliform egg clutch discovered in Brazil
In a study published in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, researchers Dr. Giovanna M. X. Paixão and her colleagues analyzed the fossilized remains of thre...
What's inside neutron stars? New model could sharpen gravitational-wave 'tide' clues
Neutron stars harbor some of the most extreme environments in the universe: their densities soar to several times those of atomic nuclei, and they possess some...
Villages: An underestimated habitat with potential for pollinators
When it comes to research on habitats for pollinating insects, villages have so far received relatively little attention. The project Summende Dörfer (Buzzing V...
Material previously thought to be quantum is actually a new, non-quantum state of matter
Magnetic materials in a quantum spin liquid phase are of great interest in the pursuit of exotic state of matter and quantum computation. But in the quantum rea...
Many scientists now use AI but fail to disclose it, study finds
When scientists employ generative AI tools like ChatGPT to help with tasks such as editing and translation for their academic writing, many journals now ask the...
Water-window X-rays without a synchrotron: How graphite flakes could shrink bioimaging tools
Researchers from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have found a new way to produce X-rays with wavelengths in what is called the "wate...
Large area MoS₂ reduces energy loss in magnetic memory films
Scientists at the University of Manchester have discovered that placing magnetic films on atomically thin molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) fundamentally changes how...
Simultaneously decoding the transcriptome, epigenome and 3D genome within a single cell
The origin of many diseases begins at the cellular level and involves multiple molecular interactions. However, previous methods have struggled to accurately ob...
Starting point for a COVID drug is the 5000th protein structure decoded at BESSY II
Many proteins have a complex architecture that enables biological functions. Molecules can bind to specific sites on a protein and alter its function. A team at...
Can we observe Earth-like exoplanets from our own planet?
Finding Earth-like planets orbiting sun-like stars and identifying signs of life such as oxygen or water is a major goal in astronomy and a key interest for the...
