Medical Xpress / Rising summer heat linked to higher US youth suicide rates, especially ages 15 to 24
From India to the U.S. and across Europe, millions are enduring an intense heat wave as temperatures soar to an unbearable range. Summers over the past few years have been extremely hot in these regions because of the combined ...
Phys.org / Super-deep diamond discovery may rewrite Earth's role in preserving the building blocks of life
Two diamonds formed 700 kilometers below the Earth's surface reveal a life-giving synchronicity between shifting continents and the cycling of phosphorus, a vital building block of DNA and cell membranes.
Phys.org / Sound waves reconstruct Alaska fireball path after cameras miss key details
When a bright fireball streaked across the Alaska sky last spring, the usual tools scientists rely on to track such events—cameras and satellites—did not provide a detailed picture. But the meteoroid left behind something ...
Phys.org / Open cluster NGC 6134 in Norma is 1.38 billion years old and hosts a core, tidal tail and diffuse halo
Indonesian astronomers have conducted a comprehensive study of an open cluster in the constellation Norma, known as NGC 6134. Results of the new study, available in a research paper published June 23 on the preprint server ...
Medical Xpress / Improving growth outcomes for children living with dwarfism
New findings from a trial conducted at Children's Hospital Colorado (Children's Colorado) and University of Colorado (CU) Anschutz School of Medicine demonstrate significantly increased growth rates in children with achondroplasia, ...
Tech Xplore / Aquifer 'thermal batteries' may cut AI data center cooling demand and save water
Aquifer-based geothermal systems, known as aquifer thermal energy storage, could help ease the environmental stress stemming from artificial intelligence data centers in the United States. Researchers at the Prairie Research ...
Phys.org / 'Atomic zoom' brings gum disease bacteria into sharp focus
The technology at the center of the growing "resolution revolution" has again shown its value to scientists at Yale by revealing the secrets of gum disease.
Phys.org / Extreme droughts in the rainforest reduce important feedback between soil and atmosphere, study finds
Isoprene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that is produced naturally by plants. More than 500 megatonnes of isoprene are emitted each year into Earth's atmosphere, primarily from tropical forests. Soils are recognized ...
Phys.org / Cosmic eruption caught in the act by submillimeter array's new fastest response system
On Jan. 26, 2026, the Submillimeter Array (SMA) on Maunakea crossed an important threshold for time-domain astronomy. For the first time, scientists from the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian (CfA) demonstrated ...
Medical Xpress / Two studies point to beta cells as active players in type 1 diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is widely understood as an autoimmune disease, with the immune system attacking the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. But two new studies suggest those cells may be more than passive victims. Together, ...
Phys.org / Computer scientists develop a new AI tool that rivals AlphaFold 3 in mapping RNA
The same family of artificial intelligence that powers today's image generators is now being aimed at one of biology's hardest puzzles: the ever-changing, three-dimensional shapes of RNA. These are the molecules behind mRNA ...
Phys.org / One of the most distant 'leaky' galaxies ever found may reveal how the universe reionized
Astronomers have identified one of the most distant candidate galaxies known to leak ionizing radiation—the same kind of radiation thought to have transformed the early universe during the epoch of reionization.
