Hundreds of flights were canceled and more than 1 million people were under evacuation advisories in Japan on Monday as Typhoon Dujuan approached Tokyo, potentially bringing record rainfall.
Medical Xpress / Teen with extraordinary memory relives his past far more often than most people do
The human brain is a mystery that keeps unraveling, revealing something fascinating with every discovery. For years, scientists have been trying to better understand a rare condition called Highly Superior Autobiographical ...
Phys.org / Physicists extend the search for quantum black holes at the LHC
Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have extended the search for evidence of microscopic black holes produced at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). The formation of these ...
Phys.org / Greenland's Qaanaaq Ice Cap has lost enough ice to produce a layer of water about 8 meters deep
Each summer, researchers from Hokkaido University returned to the Qaanaaq Ice Cap in northwestern Greenland to measure changes in the ice surface using aluminum poles drilled into the ice. Their 13-year record shows how the ...
Medical Xpress / Smelling freshly brewed coffee briefly improves mood, small study suggests
For millions around the globe, a freshly brewed cup of coffee is a wake-up drink first thing in the morning and a pick-me-up during a long, tedious workday. Scientists now have clues that it might be more than just the boost ...
Phys.org / Superdense neutron star caught feeding on a blue hypergiant's stellar wind
Using data from the Japan–led XRISM (X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission) observatory, astronomers have directly observed a giant star's outflow, called a stellar wind, being captured by its compact companion and providing ...
Tech Xplore / Real-world EV data reveal how uneven cell aging shortens battery lifespan
Electric vehicles (EVs), including cars, buses and trains, could significantly reduce the substantial greenhouse gas emissions produced by the transportation sector. These vehicles' performance and reliability over time, ...
Medical Xpress / Machine learning model distinguishes levels of psychological resilience in health care workers with 75% accuracy
A study published in Discover Artificial Intelligence used logistic regression, random forest and support vector machine (SVM) to classify health care workers according to their level of psychosocial resilience, using information ...
Phys.org / NASA spacecraft discovers a huge new crater on the moon
Scientists have discovered a crater on the moon that's bigger than the Roman Colosseum and is the result of a powerful impact two years ago that initially went undetected.
Phys.org / End of humanity? Blow‑by‑blow account of what would happen if the Yellowstone supervolcano erupted now
Around 631,000 years ago—a geological blink of an eye—catastrophe unfolded in what is now northwestern Wyoming, U.S. During what is thought to have been a series of immense volcanic eruptions, life within hundreds of kilometers ...
