Phys.org / Magnetic field helps binary star systems form, new simulations indicate
New simulations show that interactions with a magnetic field can work to decrease the distance between still forming binary protostars. These results can help explain the characteristics of the binary star systems observed ...
Phys.org / How a Richard Feynman formula could explain your dining habits in a new city
One of the dilemmas facing anyone in a new and unfamiliar city is where to dine out. You might consult guides, speak to locals, check reviews, and ultimately, try your luck. But if you're there for a while, at some point ...
Phys.org / Genetically modified hookworms produce and deliver therapeutics

The iconic header goal scored by Cristiano Ronaldo in a Manchester United vs. Real Madrid Champions League game was a marvel to watch. While heading a soccer ball can help a team climb the rankings, studies suggest it may ...
Phys.org / Dormant black hole revives in under three years, brightening 10-fold in nearby galaxy
Astronomers monitoring a nearby active galaxy for six years have watched its supermassive black hole dramatically wake up, brightening by a factor of 10 across ultraviolet and X-ray wavelengths. The paper outlining the study ...
Phys.org / Deep-sea discovery uncovers new family of copepods near Greenland
An international research team, including Dr. Nancy Mercado Salas from the Leibniz Institute for the Analysis of Biodiversity Change (LIB), has described a new family of copepods (Copepoda). The discovery was made at a depth ...
Phys.org / Britain's oldest cave art may have been rediscovered in Bacon Hole cave
The oldest cave art in Britain may have been discovered, or more likely rediscovered, in a cave on the Gower Peninsula in South Wales, possibly dating back around 17,000 years.
Medical Xpress / Flu drugs show promise against cognitive decline
A class of flu drugs may reduce cognitive decline and premature aging in people living with chronic viral infection, reports a new study led by Northwestern University that began with blood samples from people with HIV and ...
Medical Xpress / Kidney drug finerenone may help millions more patients after three major studies
A series of major studies has shown that finerenone preserves kidney function, reduces cardiovascular risk, and improves survival across a much broader range of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) than it is currently ...
Phys.org / Kamo'oalewa asteroid's lunar origin challenged ahead of Tianwen-2 arrival
China's Tianwen-2 sample-return mission is well on its way to its target, an asteroid called Kamo'oalewa. The spacecraft left Earth in May 2025 and should return in late 2027 with samples of a space rock that scientists had ...
Phys.org / First deliberately injured Langobard woman in skeletal record reshapes view of male-only violence
