Phys.org / On-demand electronic switching of topology achieved in a single crystal
University of British Columbia (UBC) scientists have demonstrated a reversible way to switch the topological state of a quantum material using mechanisms compatible with modern electronic devices. Published in Nature Materials, ...
Phys.org / Scientists map Mars' large river drainage systems for first time
Billions of years ago, it rained on Mars. The water collected in valleys and rivers, filled and spilled over the rims of craters, and was funneled into canyons, perhaps even making its way to a large Martian ocean.
Phys.org / Coral reefs have stabilized Earth's carbon cycle for the past 250 million years, research reveals
Coral reefs have long been celebrated as biodiversity hotspots—but new research shows they have also played a much deeper role: conducting the rhythm of Earth's carbon and climate cycles for more than 250 million years.
Tech Xplore / 'Rock candy' technique offers simpler, less costly way to capture carbon directly from air
University of Toronto Engineering researchers have discovered a new way of capturing carbon directly from the air—one that could offer significant cost savings over current methods.
Phys.org / New magnetic sensor material discovered using high-throughput experimental method
A NIMS research team has developed a new experimental method capable of rapidly evaluating numerous material compositions by measuring anomalous Hall resistivity 30 times faster than conventional methods. By analyzing the ...
Phys.org / The mystery of the missing deep ocean carbon fixers
In a step toward better understanding how the ocean sequesters carbon, new findings from UC Santa Barbara researchers and collaborators challenge the current view of how carbon dioxide is "fixed" in the sunless ocean depths. ...
Medical Xpress / Electrotherapy using injectable nanoparticles offers hope for glioblastoma treatment
Electrotherapy using injectable nanoparticles delivered directly into the tumor could pave the way for new treatment options for glioblastoma, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden.
Tech Xplore / Can AI make us more creative? Study reveals surprising benefits of human-AI collaboration
Artificial intelligence (AI) is often seen as a tool to automate tasks and replace humans, but new research from Swansea University challenges this view, showing that AI can also act as a creative, engaging and inspiring ...
Medical Xpress / Why some people with HIV achieve remission after antibody treatment
Researchers led by a team from Mass General Brigham and the Ragon Institute have discovered why some people living with HIV who are given a treatment called broadly neutralizing anti-HIV antibodies (bNAbs) can safely stop ...
Phys.org / Massive pit circle confirmed as Neolithic structure near Durrington Walls henge
New research from the University of St Andrews, as part of a team led by the University of Bradford, has confirmed the details of a massive, neolithic pit structure recently discovered during a geophysical survey around the ...
Medical Xpress / Burden of arthritis, long-term back problems and osteoporosis in Western Australia projected in report
The number of people living with arthritis in Western Australia is projected to increase significantly by 2045, suggests a new Monash University led-report, in collaboration with Curtin University, Arthritis & Osteoporosis ...
Medical Xpress / More accessible urban parks linked with greater physical activity across US cities
The health benefits of nature are well-known, but its role in encouraging day-to-day physical activity across different regions and demographics has been less clear. This question carries new urgency as the world faces a ...
