Phys.org / Rare-earth ions could enable telecom-ready control of interacting qubits
Quantum technologies are devices and systems that exploit the laws of quantum mechanics and could perform tasks that are difficult or impossible to tackle using their classical counterparts. These technologies process and ...
Phys.org / Agricultural waste could fuel protein-rich black soldier fly larvae for human foods
They're wriggly black grubs more commonly tossed to backyard hens than served at the dinner table, but black soldier fly larvae could soon play a key role in building a more sustainable food system, according to new research ...
Phys.org / Revisiting a forest experiment that lay forgotten for 30 years
What's the best way to manage a forest? Australians have argued about this for decades. The debate is often framed as binary: Do we protect forests entirely, or harvest trees to support local economies and communities?
Phys.org / Ancient smallpox genomes reveal how European colonization brought the disease to the Americas
Researchers from Trinity College Dublin have recovered and analyzed the first ancient smallpox virus genomes ever identified in the Americas, providing the strongest direct evidence to date that the disease was introduced ...
Phys.org / Physicists capture first direct evidence of a Floquet topological state
A new study published in Nature Physics reports the first direct experimental evidence of a Floquet topological state, a novel light-induced phase of matter that, until now, has existed only on paper and in simulations. Topological ...
Medical Xpress / Eating a wide variety of plants every day could be more beneficial than taking a probiotic
Eating a wide variety of plants every day could be more beneficial to the microbiome than taking a standard probiotic. New research led by scientists from King's College London and ZOE found that consuming a daily blend with ...
Medical Xpress / Exacerbation risk profiles vary with house dust mite sensitization in pediatric asthma
For children with asthma, exacerbation risk is associated with distinct profiles depending on house dust mite (HDM) sensitization status, according to a study published online July 16 in the International Journal of Occupational ...
Medical Xpress / Why your doctors keep leaving
If it feels harder to keep the same doctor, you're not imagining it. Health care leaders say retirements, burnout and changing workforce expectations are making it complicated to keep experienced clinicians in place.
Phys.org / New blazes in Greece as strong winds hamper firefighting
New wildfires fed by strong winds broke out in Greece on Friday, giving firefighters little respite and forcing Civil Protection officials to order the partial evacuation of part of a suburb west of Athens.
Phys.org / Spectroscopy system detects aerosols using light reflected from traffic signs and tree trunks
Researchers have developed and tested an infrared spectroscopy system that can rapidly detect chemical aerosols from a distance by using light reflected from common surfaces such as traffic signs, tree trunks or painted surfaces. ...
Medical Xpress / Immune navigation system discovery could lead to better treatments for chronic inflammation
A scientific collaboration between the University of Bath (UK) and the UMass Chan Medical School (U.S.) has determined how a specific type of white blood cell—neutrophils—moves through the body.
Phys.org / Likelihood of wildfires in Southern Europe has doubled since the 80s, study shows
Summer days featuring conditions that promote wildfire ignition, intensity and spread have more than doubled across large parts of the Iberian Peninsula, France, Italy and Greece since 1981, according to a study in Scientific ...
