Phys.org / Extraterrestrial strategy: How the US could achieve energy dominance in space
Energy is fundamentally important—researchers have linked a lack of reliable energy to poor physical health, poor mental health and higher mortality rates. But when astronauts push the boundaries of space exploration, energy ...
Phys.org / Unseen planet or brown dwarf may have hidden 'rare' fading star
One of the longest stellar dimming events ever observed was likely caused by the gigantic saucer-like rings of either an unseen brown dwarf or "super-Jupiter" blocking its host star's light, astronomers say. For decades, ...
Medical Xpress / Sleep‑aligned fasting improves key heart and blood‑sugar markers
A new Northwestern Medicine study has personalized overnight fasting by aligning it with individuals' circadian sleep-wake rhythm—an important regulator of cardiovascular and metabolic function—without changing their ...
Medical Xpress / Staged approach suggested for patient decision aid in atopic dermatitis
A staged approach for a patient decision aid (PDA) can help to deliver complex information in a patient-centered manner and facilitate shared decision-making in adults with atopic dermatitis (AD), according to a study published ...
Medical Xpress / New research results in changes to NHS guidelines
Hundreds of people with advanced bladder cancer across the UK can now receive three rather than six chemotherapy cycles following research by Queen Mary University of London which has led to a change to NHS treatment guidelines. ...
Medical Xpress / Non-contractile heart cells help sustain persistent atrial fibrillation, study reveals
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common chronic cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice, is very challenging to treat once it becomes persistent, after which spontaneous return to normal rhythm becomes highly unlikely. ...
Medical Xpress / Why asthma risk differs by sex: Study links early-life exposures to lung gene networks
A new study has confirmed that male and female lungs are "wired differently" at the molecular level, providing further evidence supporting sex-inclusive respiratory disease research and treatment. The work is published in ...
Tech Xplore / Samsung starts mass production of next-gen AI memory chip
Samsung Electronics announced Thursday it had started mass production of next-generation memory chips to power artificial intelligence, touting an "industry-leading" breakthrough.
Phys.org / Urgent need for school-housing partnerships to support students facing housing instability, according to study
Housing instability, often invisible to schools until it begins to disrupt attendance, learning, or mental health, is a growing challenge for families with school-age children, according to new research. A policy scan led ...
Tech Xplore / Supercomputer provides high-fidelity insights into turbine aerothermal performance
In a long-running collaboration with GE Aerospace, researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia have been steadily working to improve the performance of high-pressure turbine (HPT) engines through computer simulations ...
Phys.org / China carbon emissions 'flat or falling' in 2025: analysis
China's emissions of planet-warming carbon dioxide were "flat or falling" in 2025, analysis showed Thursday, but progress remains fragile and it is not yet clear that emissions have peaked.
Phys.org / A new framework could transform national flood prediction
When severe weather strikes, the National Weather Service's (NWS) Office of Water Prediction (OWP) makes critical flood forecasts with the National Water Model. Despite improvements over time, the model's performance has ...
