Phys.org / GRS 0917+75 is a giant radio galaxy, observations find
European astronomers have conducted optical and radio observations of an enigmatic radio source designated GRS 0917+75. As a result, they found that GRS 0917+75 is a giant radio galaxy and determined its properties. The new ...
Phys.org / Living alligators expose why juvenile fossils can fool classification methods
Fossil finds are exciting moments that sometimes introduce the world to an ancient mammal or dinosaur that existed millions of years ago. But a longstanding problem in paleontology is that fossils are often incomplete, and ...
Science X / Deep below the Lost City, scientists uncovered superheated water that may fuel one of Earth's strangest ecosystems
Deep in the Atlantic Ocean, the Lost City hydrothermal field is known for eerie white chimney structures made of carbonate. Alkaline hot springs, loaded with hydrogen and methane, emerge from the seafloor there. Rather than ...
Phys.org / Air from Greenland snow shows industrialization's impact on atmospheric methane
An international team of researchers, including scientists from Utrecht University and the University of Maryland, has reconstructed the concentration of clumped isotopes of methane in air from the past for the first time. ...
Phys.org / Schrödinger‑like charges in six‑molecule clusters point to new quantum components
Researchers from the University of Basel have published details of how electrons within a cluster of molecules interact with one another and can be controlled. Their findings pave the way for new approaches to developing ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers shrink powerful terahertz systems onto a single semiconductor chip
High-frequency waves classified as terahertz occupy a relatively underused region of the electromagnetic spectrum between infrared light and microwaves. Researchers have long recognized their unique potential for applications ...
Medical Xpress / Heated yoga can ease depressive symptoms, the more you go the better you feel
Heated yoga, or hot yoga, is practiced in a room heated to 32–40°C (90–105°F) and has gained popularity in recent years. The warmth helps loosen your muscles, making it easier to stretch and increasing workout intensity. ...
Phys.org / Invertebrates can distinguish good from bad bacteria
Researchers from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) and Kiel University (CAU) have examined immune system function in an early-branching animal—a sea anemone. They discovered that the immune systems of these animals ...
Tech Xplore / New contact material improves efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells
A newly developed material for the electron contact improves the efficiency of single perovskite solar cells and perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. The new material is based on a carborane molecule. It offers several ...
Medical Xpress / Common diet tips about water intake and spicy foods could be wrong
The common rationale for drinking water at meals is that it physically stretches the stomach, triggering fullness so you don't eat too much. But a new Cornell study found no support for that idea in practice. The paper is ...
Phys.org / Climate change reshapes waterborne disease risks as pathogens respond differently, review finds
Climate change is altering the spread of waterborne diseases around the world, according to a comprehensive review published today in Nature Reviews Microbiology. The publication is the most up-to-date, comprehensive analysis ...
Phys.org / Pump that recreates human heartbeat blood flow on lab chips inspired by an accordionist
For more than 25 years, lab-on-a-chip technology has allowed researchers to model human organs and blood vessels using real human cells in artificial microscopic environments. These microphysiological systems (MPS) may replicate ...
