Phys.org / Atoms vibrate on circular paths—with an unexpected twist
An international team of researchers, including scientists from HZDR and Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, for the first time directly observed how angular momentum is transferred and conserved within a crystal ...
Tech Xplore / Seven smart rings promise to break sign language barriers by turning hand movements into instant text
Researchers in South Korea have developed a new sign language translation system based on users wearing seven rings equipped with sensors. According to a new study published in the journal Science Advances, the technology ...
Science X / Are remoras the ocean's weirdest hitchhikers? These suckerfish invade manta rays in the most intimate of places
Remoras (family Echeneidae) are ray-finned fish that are known to attach themselves to large marine animals, such as whales, sharks, and turtles. They get a free ride and sometimes food, and in return, often provide cleaning ...
Science X / Dinosaurs had company in the dark: Amber fossil reveals an ancient glow that lit Cretaceous nights
Forget what you thought you knew about fireflies. A remarkable discovery reveals their iconic glow was already lighting up the world when dinosaurs still roamed.
Phys.org / Engineered exosomes reverse sleep deprivation brain damage in mice
Sleep is a vital physiological process that allows humans and other animals to restore both the mind and body, while also consolidating memories, clearing out toxins and regulating their metabolism. Several past studies showed ...
Tech Xplore / 'Touch dreaming' helps humanoid robots handle five tricky tasks with 90.9% higher success
Humanoid robots, robotic systems with a body structure that resembles that of humans, could soon assist humans with various tasks in household environments, manufacturing sites, hospitals and other settings. While some humanoid ...
Medical Xpress / New study challenges the idea that testosterone drives risk-taking behavior
Men are more likely to take risks in tricky situations than women, but whether there is an inherent biological reason behind it is a question researchers have been asking for quite some time. A popular theory suggests that ...
Phys.org / 'Elegant triangle' experiment suggests quantum internet may be closer than we think
For more than 60 years, Bell's theorem has been the gold standard for demonstrating that quantum mechanics defies the rules of classical physics. Now, an international team of researchers, including Constructor University ...
Phys.org / A deep‑ocean climate plan wins rare EPA approval, but is sinking plants in the sea the answer?
Innovators who are working on ways to pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere to fight climate change are having a tough time lately.
Phys.org / Bright blazar reveals 433-day optical quasi-periodic oscillation across nine years
By analyzing the data from the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT), an international team of astronomers has discovered optical quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in a bright quasar known as 3C 454.3. It is so far one of the ...
Science X / Could striped wind turbines save millions of birds?
Wind energy is quickly becoming a key pillar in the fight against climate change, with its turbines rising like modern monuments to a greener future. Yet the rapid growth hides a dark side: the spinning blades that produce ...
Phys.org / Black holes don't live forever, but they might live long enough to look like white holes
Black holes live forever, at least according to general relativity. Once material crosses a black hole's event horizon, it is trapped forever, until the last day of cosmic time. But we know that isn't true. General relativity ...
