Medical Xpress / Five-minute hourly movement breaks ca cut fatigue, lift mood without hurting work
Hourly movement breaks of just five minutes each seem to offer the best balance between feasibility and effectiveness for mitigating the health harms of prolonged sitting, suggests a large study carried out under real-world ...
Phys.org / Ripple-like rings of the 'Bullseye galaxy' could be explained by dark matter
Two U.S. physicists have suggested that the nine concentric rings surrounding the galaxy LEDA 1313424, also known as the Bullseye galaxy, could have emerged through the quantum behavior of particles of dark matter. Through ...
Tech Xplore / How digital participation can aid the energy transition
The active involvement of citizens, stakeholders and municipalities is essential for the success of the energy transition. Digital participation platforms promise broader access to planning processes. However, a new study, ...
Phys.org / NASA should build a biocontainment facility on the moon to protect Earth, researchers advise
A biocontainment facility designed to protect Earth from potentially hazardous biotic contaminants from space should be part of a planned NASA base on the moon, a policy paper maintains.
Medical Xpress / Short daily home dialysis is better for preserving physical activity
Short daily home dialysis (SDHD) is associated with sustained preservation of physical activity, better postdialysis recovery, and improved sleep compared with conventional in-center hemodialysis (ICHD), according to a study ...
Phys.org / How reading shapes and enhances our cognitive activity
Smartphones, online learning, generative AI: The way we read has changed more in the last decade than in the previous century. So what do we actually know about what reading does for the mind? In his new book, Falk Huettig, ...
Phys.org / The Sun may not engulf Earth after all, scientists say
Need some good news on a Friday after a long week? The Earth may not be engulfed by the expanding fireball of the dying sun, which has long been assumed to be our home planet's ultimate fate, according to scientists.

Medical Xpress / Indiana takes on powerful hospitals by capping prices they charge employers
Tired of watching its employers struggle to afford the cost of health care, Republican-controlled Indiana is trying a traditionally liberal tactic to control costs: setting government price controls on hospitals.
Phys.org / Horizon edge states gain finite description in string theory calculation
Modern physics theories highlight the key role of horizons—boundaries beyond which information cannot reach an observer—in a variety of cosmological and gravitational phenomena. Two renowned examples of these boundaries are ...
Tech Xplore / Brain-inspired AI architecture could compute faster while using far less power
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are artificial intelligence (AI) models inspired by how biological neurons communicate with each other. While biological neurons exchange information in the form of electrical impulses, SNNs ...
