Phys.org / Y1 is an ultra-luminous infrared galaxy, ALMA observations reveal
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), an international team of astronomers has inspected a distant galaxy designated MACS0416_Y1. Results of the observations, presented Nov. 11 on the arXiv pre-print ...
Phys.org / Just follow orders or obey the law? What US troops told us about refusing illegal commands
As the Trump administration carries out what many observers say are illegal military strikes against vessels in the Caribbean allegedly smuggling drugs, six Democratic members of Congress issued a video on Nov. 18, 2025, ...
Phys.org / Protein droplets in the nucleus guard against cancer, researchers discover
Scientists at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, have discovered how a gene-regulating protein forms tiny liquid-like droplets inside the cell nucleus (the compartment that stores and manages ...
Tech Xplore / Perovskite–silicon solar cells last longer under heat with new molecular layer
Solar panels made from silicon already adorn rooftops and vast fields around the world—but they are reaching their performance limits. Researchers are now pairing silicon with a promising material called perovskite to capture ...
Medical Xpress / Psychology can change the way food tastes: Here's how to use it to make the most of your meals
Ever eaten while doom-scrolling and realized you barely tasted anything? Or found your favorite pasta strangely bland after a stressful meeting, yet somehow delicious on a relaxed Saturday evening?
Phys.org / Genetic engineering reduces plant's chromosome number without affecting its growth
Higher yields, greater resilience to climatic changes or diseases—the demands on crop plants are constantly growing. To address these challenges, researchers of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) are developing new ...
Medical Xpress / Type 1 diabetes cured in mice with gentle blood stem-cell and pancreatic islet transplant
A combination of blood stem cell and pancreatic islet cell transplant from an immunologically mismatched donor completely prevented or cured type 1 diabetes in mice in a study by Stanford Medicine researchers. Type 1 diabetes ...
Phys.org / Streamlining what universities offer could backfire for disadvantaged students
The government's vision for higher education in England, set out in a recent policy paper, includes some changes that will benefit students from poorer backgrounds.
Tech Xplore / New green homes in the UK put less strain on the grid than models predicted
A study of some of the first net-zero-ready homes in the UK has found that their peak grid power demand is far lower than planners had anticipated. The research confirms that these all-electric homes can significantly cut ...
Phys.org / Sea level rise threatens the North Sea coast more than expected
As a result of climate change, rising sea levels are threatening low-lying coastal areas around the world, such as the Wadden Sea in the North Sea. Tidal basins form a natural protective barrier there. They connect the mainland ...
Tech Xplore / Ionic thermoelectric film uses body heat to power LED lights
A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a novel thermoelectric (TE) film, capable of powering LED lights using a mere 1.5°C temperature difference between the human body and ambient air. This innovative technology ...
Medical Xpress / New implant captures gut-brain signals in awake, moving animals
Scientists have been able to measure the electrical signals in the "second brain in our guts" for the first-ever time, giving renewed understanding to its interconnection with the brain.
