Phys.org / Scientists studying cockroach milk and nose-blowing win Ig Nobel prizes for quirky science
Ten research teams were honored Thursday at a satirical science awards ceremony that was hosted outside the U.S. for the first time due to travel concerns.
Phys.org / Nanoscale multiferroic materials open the path to efficient magnetic memory technology
With the rapid spread of cloud computing, artificial intelligence and data centers, global energy consumption is rising to new heights. A promising way to reduce this burden is to develop memory devices that store information ...
Tech Xplore / Improved method for producing sustainable hydrogen offers a surprising side benefit
Producing hydrogen is essential for some of the world's biggest industrial and agricultural needs, but it also comes with a steep environmental cost: Most hydrogen made today is generated through processes that release large ...
Phys.org / From pets to zoos: How students perceive animal husbandry
Animals fulfill a wide range of roles in human society. They provide food, contribute to scientific research, live alongside people as companion animals, and play important roles in education, conservation, research and public ...
Phys.org / BESIII sets world's most stringent direct limit on Lambda hyperon electric dipole moment
The BESIII Collaboration, led by the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has achieved the world's most precise measurement of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the Lambda (Λ) hyperon using ...
Phys.org / 'Green thumb' molecule helps leaf stalks grow in crowded conditions
Potassium (K) is one of the three essential nutrients for plants. It plays a critical role in a wide range of processes, including cell growth, photosynthesis and regulation of water balance. Plants take up K from the soil ...
Phys.org / Mixed grazing, controlled burns and collaboration can curb Mediterranean wildfire risks
Wildfires in the Mediterranean region are becoming drastically more intense. The recent major fires in France, Spain and Greece show that firefighting efforts are reaching their limits.
Medical Xpress / Three psychedelic drugs affect the brain differently, brain scans in rats suggest
In recent years, psychedelic drugs have attracted growing interest as potential treatments for conditions including depression, anxiety and addiction. Although these drugs are often considered one group, researchers from ...
Phys.org / Hubble tracks new decagon encircling Saturn's south pole
Recent observations with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have revealed a giant, evolving, 10-sided atmospheric wave encircling Saturn's south pole. This discovery marks the first time a large, regular-sided jet pattern has ...
Tech Xplore / Why organic chemistry may help build AI that can explain its answers
While most believe artificial intelligence (AI) is changing science, researchers at the University of Notre Dame are exploring the reverse.
Tech Xplore / Supercooled water enables 3D printing of ice
Physicists from the University of Amsterdam have developed a method to print three-dimensional structures in ice. The researchers show how small pillars can be printed at an angle, making it possible to print arbitrary profiles ...
Phys.org / Bats show promise as a form of biological pest control in South African macadamia plantations
Labor-intensive harvesting and complex processing make macadamias among the most expensive nuts in the world. This makes it all the more important to protect the trees from pests.
