Medical Xpress / How adults can help children move from climate anxiety to resilience
Children have the least control over the planet's future, but will also be the most affected as it changes. They may well feel the mental toll of the "futility gap": when individual actions feel meaningless against broader ...
Phys.org / Quadratic gravity theory reshapes quantum view of Big Bang
Waterloo scientists have developed a new way to understand how the universe began, and it could change what we know about the Big Bang and the earliest moments of cosmic history. Their work suggests that the universe's rapid ...
Phys.org / Framework unifies the classical and quantum Mpemba effects
Physicists have developed a new theoretical framework which unifies a wide array of seemingly unrelated "Mpemba effects": counterintuitive cases where systems driven further from equilibrium relax faster than those closer ...
Phys.org / A rare 'triple-double' radio galaxy discovered using MeerKAT
Astronomers have discovered an exceptionally rare radio galaxy that has three distinct pairs of radio lobes. This system falls into a subpopulation of radio galaxies known as "triple-double" radio galaxies (TDRGs). Located ...
Medical Xpress / Why early pregnancy loss care can feel isolating, and how a new program can help
An Australian-first early pregnancy loss support program has been developed to better address the emotional care of bereaved parents. The program, M-HELP (Mental Health after Early Pregnancy Loss), was developed by University ...
Phys.org / Novel measurement confirms a 50-year-old prediction: Dark points are faster than light
A research group from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology reports in Nature an unprecedented achievement in electron microscopy: the direct measurement of "dark points" within light waves. By doing so, the researchers ...
Phys.org / In wrangling dark matter, some scientists find inspiration in the Torah, Krishna and Christ
When an invisible entity making up 85% of the universe's mass stumps the greatest scientific minds of our time, awe is an understandable response.
Phys.org / A million new SpaceX satellites will destroy the night sky—for everyone on Earth
More than 10,000 Starlink satellites currently orbit Earth. We see them crawling across dark skies, no matter how remote our location, and streaking through images from research telescopes.
Phys.org / What's inside a masterpiece? Laser scans and AI map paint layers molecule by molecule
Paintings are far more than dabs of oil on canvas. They are complex works of art composed of multiple layers, from primer and glues to the pigments and protective varnishes applied by the artists. Being able to see into these ...
Tech Xplore / Hygroscopic salts pull lithium from mining waste using only moisture from air
The world cannot have enough of the third element on the periodic table. From smartphones and laptops to state-of-the-art EVs, all are powered by lithium batteries. The demand for metal is only going to rise, and projected ...
Tech Xplore / Alkaline steel and cement wastewater could capture 30 million tons of CO₂ annually
Alkaline industrial wastewaters from steel or cement production are ideally suited to bind and sequester carbon dioxide (CO₂) chemically, safely, and for the long term. This is the result of a study conducted by the Helmholtz-Zentrum ...
Medical Xpress / Deep learning reveals how auditory cortex neurons split up natural sound coding
Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems designed to emulate the organization and functioning of networks of neurons in the brain. Recently, some of these models ...
