Phys.org / A new turbulence equation for eddy interactions: AI and physics team up to tackle notoriously difficult question
The currents of the oceans, the roiling surface of the sun, and the clouds of smoke billowing off a forest fire—all are governed by the same laws of physics and give rise to a complex phenomenon known as turbulence. But ...
Tech Xplore / New sound-based 3D-printing method enables finer, faster microdevices
Concordia researchers have developed a new 3D-printing technique that uses sound waves to directly print tiny structures onto soft polymers like silicone with far greater precision than before. The approach, called proximal ...
Medical Xpress / Climate-friendly diet yields unexpectedly strong nutritional outcomes
That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in an environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are ...
Phys.org / Oldest known sewn hide and other artifacts from Oregon caves shed light on early clothing in harsh climates
In 1958, an amateur archaeologist named John Cowles excavated the Cougar Mountain Cave in Oregon and retained many of the artifacts found there. Upon his death in the 1980s, these items were transferred to the Favell Museum ...
Phys.org / A little protein with a big role in building Earth's carbon fixing machinery
An international team of scientists has discovered that a small, low-abundance protein plays a surprisingly big role in assembling carboxysomes—specialized bacterial microcompartments that enable efficient carbon fixation ...
Medical Xpress / HIV antibody opens up new approaches for vaccine development and combination therapies
An international research team has identified a novel HIV antibody that targets the virus at a particularly vulnerable site and overcomes previous limitations of known antibodies. This study, led by Professor Dr. Florian ...
Phys.org / Driven electrolytes are agile and active at the nanoscale
Technologies for energy storage as well as biological systems such as the network of neurons in the brain depend on driven electrolytes that are traveling in an electric field due to their electrical charges. This concept ...
Phys.org / Identifying pathways for managing PFAS waste in semiconductor manufacturing
As semiconductor manufacturing rapidly expands to meet growing global demand for generative AI and advanced electronics, a new review published in Environmental Science & Technology assesses the current state of science, ...
Phys.org / Sunlight extracts oxygen from regolith using solar chemistry
NASA's Carbothermal Reduction Demonstration (CaRD) project has completed an important step toward using local resources to support human exploration on the moon. The CaRD team performed integrated prototype testing that used ...
Phys.org / Fossil discovery suggests giant pythons once roamed Taiwan
Pythons are a common sight across much of Asia, especially in the tropical jungles and wetlands of countries like Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. But one curious exception has been the main island of Taiwan, where there ...
Phys.org / Sea turtles are nesting earlier but producing fewer eggs, 17-year study finds
Climate change is reshaping life on Earth at an unprecedented pace. Across the globe, species are shifting their ranges, altering migration routes and breeding earlier in the year in response to rising temperatures. But while ...
Phys.org / Collaboration between universities and hospitals intensifies in times of crisis, finds study
Economic and public health conditions influence universities' research priorities. A study led by INGENIO, a joint research center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Universitat Politècnica de València ...
