Tech Xplore / Rising costs and competition threaten GoPro
For nearly 25 years, GoPro cameras have gone underwater, glided with parachutes and slipped down ski slopes, allowing the adventurous to record images of their experiences.
Medical Xpress / OB-GYN group makes vaccine recommendations for the first time
A prominent OB-GYN group announced vaccine recommendations on Wednesday that differ from what the U.S. government advises.
Tech Xplore / Reactor reboot at world's largest nuclear plant highlights flaws in Japan's radioactive waste plans
Japan has resumed operations at the world's largest nuclear power plant to help the country meet huge electricity demands during a global oil crisis, but the reboot highlights a big problem: Japan is running out of space ...
Phys.org / People have an inherent preference for counterclockwise motion, study reveals
Researchers in Spain and Japan tested a broad range of pedestrians in varying group sizes to see whether there were any patterns in their turning behaviors, and what factors influenced them, if any. It turns out that the ...
Tech Xplore / From safety hazard to climate solution: Technology tackling fugitive methane from coal mines
Every underground coal mine has one thing in common: Coal seams leak methane gas into the tunnel network, presenting a serious safety hazard. The control is the same the world over: continuously pump fresh air through the ...
Phys.org / Possible dark matter-deficient twins discovered in the Fornax Cluster
Astronomers have identified a possible new example of one of the universe's strangest galaxy types: galaxies that appear to contain little or no dark matter. The newly studied pair, FCC 224 and FCC 240, on the outskirts of ...
Tech Xplore / Entirely new way of making espresso shakes up the coffee world
Researchers at UNSW Sydney have harnessed the power of ultrasonic sound waves to make espresso-strength coffee with room-temperature water, cutting energy use by up to 75%. That morning coffee kick from a shot of espresso ...
Phys.org / Could the Milky Way's missing mass be hiding in a swarm of interstellar comets?
3I/ATLAS has caused quite a stir over the last year, inviting astronomers to update what they know about other solar systems as well as our own. However, this third interstellar visitor may have an unexpected impact on our ...
Phys.org / Cosmic acceleration holds up as new analysis rebuts slowdown claim
Our universe's expansion is still accelerating despite recent claims suggesting otherwise, an international team of astrophysicists says.
Phys.org / Birth rates are declining in most of the world—here's why it really matters
Birth rates have been declining worldwide since the peak of the post-Second World War baby boom. Birth rates have now reached below replacement in most of the world, including Australia. Put simply, populations on average ...
Phys.org / To discover new physics, AI may need to 'unlearn' the old one
A study in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics explores how a machine-learning strategy known as transfer learning could dramatically reduce the computational cost of searching for new physics beyond the standard ...
Phys.org / Black hole feeding bursts may explain JWST's Little Red Dots in early universe
A new theoretical study may have cracked one of the most puzzling discoveries of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST): Little Red Dots, spotted across the early universe. The paper, posted to the arXiv preprint server on ...
