Phys.org / Hollow-core fiber platform could help different quantum technologies connect
Quantum technologies promise secure communication networks, powerful forms of computing and new sensing tools. One of the major challenges, however, is that different quantum systems often operate at different wavelengths ...
Phys.org / NASA's Roman telescope set to launch on cosmic mapping mission
NASA is preparing to launch its new flagship space telescope on Sunday, embarking on a multiyear mission to create an unprecedented map of the cosmos and shed light on some of the biggest mysteries in physics.
Medical Xpress / Machine learning model identifies heart failure with reduced ejection fraction using routine lab indicators
A 13-indicator routine laboratory model shows moderate discrimination for distinguishing heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), according to a study published online Aug. 9 in Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine.
Medical Xpress / Breast cancer survivors could avoid lifelong heart medication, research suggests
Many breast cancer survivors whose treatment caused them to develop problems with their heart function can safely stop their medication after their heart recovers, and most won't need to continue treatment long term, according ...
Tech Xplore / Some US cities have begun rewarding careful drivers with fewer red lights
Officials struggled for years to curb high-speed crashes along a residential corridor cutting through Albuquerque, New Mexico, but simply punishing the lead-footed drivers didn't seem to work.
Medical Xpress / Cardiologist referrals improve cholesterol levels in prostate cancer patients, but may not be necessary for all
Men with prostate cancer have a high risk of heart disease, especially when treated with hormone therapy. A large international, first-of-its-kind study led by Hamilton researchers found that routine referrals to an internist ...
Phys.org / How plastic welds retain a molecular 'memory' of their former surfaces to strengthen pipe joints
Welding plastic is a critically important part of everyday engineering—especially for preventing leaks in underground water and gas pipes. For decades, engineers have understood that a properly welded joint in polyethylene ...
Medical Xpress / Early initiation of statins after diagnosis of type 2 diabetes associated with a lower risk of dementia
Early initiation of statins after diagnosis of type 2 diabetes was associated with a lower risk of dementia, according to a study presented at ESC Congress 2026 and published in The Lancet Regional Health – Europe.
Phys.org / Centuries of child labor left lasting spinal damage in Dutch children, study finds
Children in the postmedieval Dutch workforce worked so hard that their spines became worn and deformed, with some children affected before they even had a chance to lose their baby teeth, a new study published in the International ...
Medical Xpress / Studies reveal how instability may shape infant attention, brain activity and emotional regulation
A baby's brain is always listening, watching and learning—even when the world around it is chaotic and makes no sense.
Phys.org / A never-before-seen picture of eagle migrations
In 1899, scientists began tracking avian migration by placing a small ring with an identifier around birds' ankles. Researchers then had to recapture the birds elsewhere, leaving the journey between those points a mystery. ...
Phys.org / Airborne tuberculosis bacteria may mutate as they dry, revealing a target to curb drug resistance
Tuberculosis bacteria released into the air from infected individuals dry out to form infectious particles that are second only to measles in contagiousness. Weill Cornell Medicine investigators have discovered specific mechanisms ...
