Astronomers from the George Washington University (GWU) in Washington, DC, and elsewhere have employed NASA's Chandra X-ray spacecraft to observe a pulsar wind nebula inside a supernova remnant known as CTA 1. Results of ...
Medical Xpress / An overlooked protein may decide how fast male fertility starts to unravel with age
A study led by researchers at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and the Josep Carreras Leukemia Research Institute (IJC) along with researchers from Rutgers University (U.S.) has identified the Sirtuin 7 (SIRT7) ...
Tech Xplore / 3D silicon circuits bring denser computer chips closer to reality
By stacking transistors on top of one another, rather than laying them side by side on a flat chip, many electronic engineers are hopeful that vast amounts of computing power could be packed into tiny spaces, all while cutting ...
Science X / When Earth went dark after Chicxulub, tiny ocean dwellers held the secret to survival
When a 10-kilometer asteroid struck Earth 66 million years ago, the planet was plunged into darkness—and about 75% of species vanished, including marine life. Now, a new study reveals that the planetary effects from the impact ...
Medical Xpress / Inside Alzheimer's neurons, tau may set off a genetic chain reaction that ends in cell death
Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a progressive decline in mental functions and memory loss. Along with frontotemporal dementia and some other neurodegenerative disorders, Alzheimer's disease ...
Phys.org / Q&A: Ancient bird species found in China's Liaoning had extra-long tail feathers for elaborate courtship
A recently discovered extinct bird from the early Cretaceous Period (approximately 121 million years ago) may have waggled its long tail feathers to attract mates, according to a study published May 27, 2026 in the open-access ...
Phys.org / Ohio wall lizards overcame genetic bottleneck through rapid population boom, genomes reveal
Non-native wall lizards living in Cincinnati, Ohio, have thrived against the odds thanks to an ability to expand their population more quickly than any inbreeding-amplified harmful genes could weaken their chances for survival, ...
Phys.org / A trip to the United Arab Emirates' darkest spot reveals a rare view of the Milky Way
The gleaming skyscrapers and bright lights of the United Arab Emirates draw the eyes of all who travel there, a sign of the Arabian Peninsula nation's rapid, oil-fueled development over the last decades into a major hub for ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: Researcher discusses early-onset breast cancer in East Africa
Most breast cancer patients in Uganda and Ethiopia are diagnosed too late, and many lack access to life-saving treatment. Tove Ekdahl Hjelm defends her thesis "Early-onset breast cancer in East Africa: genetics, tumor characteristics ...
