Phys.org / Bioinspired event camera tracks full vibration trajectory using geometry
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed a noncontact vibration measurement method using an event camera, a sensing technology inspired by biological vision. By applying geometric analysis to event-stream data, ...
Phys.org / How much do nontargeted analyses really see? A model maps chemical blind spots
In a study published in Analytical Chemistry, researchers from the University of Amsterdam's Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS) reveal a sobering reality regarding nontargeted chemical analysis. Although ...
Tech Xplore / A bicycle robot that can drive fast and jump over obstacles
Experienced human cyclists can perform a wide range of maneuvers and acrobatics while riding their bicycle, from balancing in place to riding on a single wheel or hopping over obstacles. Reproducing these agile maneuvers ...
Medical Xpress / Trial finds immunotherapy did not improve survival when added to chemoradiotherapy for small cell lung cancer
Immunotherapy given during and after chemoradiation did not improve survival for study participants with limited-stage, small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) according to the results of an international clinical trial, NRG-LU005, ...
Phys.org / Good news for wastewater irrigation: Three crops store pharmaceutical byproducts in their leaves
In areas where freshwater is scarce, farmers often turn to treated wastewater to irrigate crops. And many regulators and consumers worry about exposing food to compounds routinely found in wastewater, including many psychoactive ...
Tech Xplore / How an acid found in grapes could help recycle battery metals
Cobalt and nickel are vital components for batteries, superalloys and catalysts, used in technologies ranging from smartphones to jet engines. But when it comes to recycling, they are notoriously difficult to separate because ...
Phys.org / Harnessing eDNA to help conserve Australia's oceans
As we move through the world, we leave behind invisible traces of ourselves encased in the hair, skin, and other bodily matter we shed. These tiny pieces of DNA—known as environmental DNA or eDNA—have major conservation ...
Medical Xpress / Fatty acids that selectively kill senescent cells open new paths for age-related therapies
New research from the University of Minnesota Medical School has identified fatty acids that selectively induce death in senescent cells—the culprits behind aging and many chronic diseases—opening new avenues for age-related ...
Phys.org / What keeps centrioles together: NuSAP's newly mapped role in centrosome integrity
Biologists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have uncovered how the protein NuSAP safeguards tiny structures inside cells called centrioles, revealing a mechanism linked to developmental disorders such as microcephaly ...
Phys.org / We are not alone: Our sun escaped together with stellar 'twins' from galaxy center
Researchers have uncovered evidence for our sun joining a mass migration of similar "twins" leaving the core regions of our galaxy, 4 to 6 billion years ago. The team created and studied an unprecedentedly accurate catalog ...
Phys.org / Local droplet etching yields more symmetric quantum dots for integrated photonics
Light-based quantum technologies, such as quantum communication and photonic quantum computing, require reliable sources of individual photons and, ideally, pairs of entangled photons. Semiconductor quantum dots are promising ...
Phys.org / AI accelerates elucidation of nuclear forces with explosive neutron star data
A research team is using astrophysical explosions to understand the mysterious forces at work in some of the smallest building blocks in nature: atomic nuclei. In new research published in Nature Communications, the team ...
