Phys.org / Study maps the time and energy patterns of electron pairs in ultrafast pulses
The ability to precisely study and manipulate electrons in electron microscopes could open new possibilities for the development of both ultrafast imaging techniques and quantum technologies.
Phys.org / Y1 is an ultra-luminous infrared galaxy, ALMA observations reveal
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), an international team of astronomers has inspected a distant galaxy designated MACS0416_Y1. Results of the observations, presented Nov. 11 on the arXiv pre-print ...
Medical Xpress / Discovering America's 'epilepsy belt': Study reveals US regions with high epilepsy rates
A first-of-its-kind nationwide study has mapped epilepsy incidence rates among older adults in the United States and identified key social and environmental factors associated with the neurological condition.
Phys.org / Humans bring gender bias to their interactions with AI, finds study
Humans bring gender biases to their interactions with Artificial Intelligence (AI), according to new research from Trinity College Dublin and Ludwig-Maximilians Universität (LMU) Munich.
Tech Xplore / New green homes in the UK put less strain on the grid than models predicted
A study of some of the first net-zero-ready homes in the UK has found that their peak grid power demand is far lower than planners had anticipated. The research confirms that these all-electric homes can significantly cut ...
Phys.org / Cleveland's famous sea monster gets a scientific update
About 360 million years ago, the shallow sea above present-day Cleveland was home to a fearsome apex predator: Dunkleosteus terrelli. This 14-foot armored fish ruled the Late Devonian seas with razor-sharp bone blades instead ...
Phys.org / New fabric reflects 96% of sunlight to keep wearers cooler in extreme heat
As global temperatures rise and heat waves intensify, a new textile innovation co-developed by University of South Australia scientists promises to keep people cooler, drier, and more comfortable in extreme heat.
Phys.org / Subverting plasmids to combat antibiotic resistance
Researchers in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School have opened a new window into understanding the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria.
Medical Xpress / New on-switch for pain signaling pathway could lead to safer treatment and relief
Researchers at Tulane University, with a team of colleagues from eight other universities, have discovered a new nerve cell signaling mechanism that could transform our understanding of pain and lead to safer, more effective ...
Medical Xpress / Engineered immune cells target and destroy glioblastoma in animal models
With a five-year survival rate of less than 5%, glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive types of brain cancer. Until now, all available treatments, including immunotherapy—which involves strengthening the immune system ...
Medical Xpress / Avian flu warning system alerts for cross-species transmission
How can we monitor the cross-species transmission of avian flu? The answer is FluWarning, a digital system that reports abnormal changes in flu viruses, developed by a research team from the Politecnico di Milano and the ...
Phys.org / Watching DNA repair in real time with a live-cell sensor
Cancer research, drug safety testing and aging biology may all gain a major boost from a new fluorescent sensor developed at Utrecht University. This new tool allows scientists to watch DNA damage and repair unfold in real ...
