Phys.org / Araish spiral galaxy observations uncover a 26,700-light-year radio jet
An international team of astronomers has performed multi-wavelength observations of the nearby Araish galaxy to investigate the origin of its radio emission. As a result, they detected an extended radio jet of this galaxy. ...
Phys.org / National survey finds microplastic pollution around Britain's coastline could be double than previously recorded
Data collected during a rowing challenge around the seas of Great Britain has found significantly higher concentrations of microplastic pollution than previously recorded, a new report finds. The team, which included University ...
Phys.org / The algorithmic feed on X could be shifting political views toward conservatism
Turning on the "For You" algorithm on X (formerly Twitter) may shift users' political opinions toward more conservative views, suggests research involving nearly 5,000 X users. These effects are shown to persist even after ...
Phys.org / Sometimes less is more: Messier nanoparticles may actually deliver drugs more effectively than tightly packed ones
The tiny fatty capsules that deliver COVID-19 mRNA vaccines into billions of arms may work better when they're a little disorganized. That's the surprising finding from researchers who developed a new way to examine these ...
Medical Xpress / Recurrent prostate cancer: Two treatment strategies with uncertain outcomes compared
Imperial College London investigators compared focal therapy with prostate removal surgery for men with prostate cancer that returned after radiotherapy. Matched analyses estimated 10-year cancer-specific survival at 92% ...
Phys.org / Proton's width measured to unparalleled precision, narrowing the path to new physics
Physicists in Germany have carried out the most accurate measurement to date of the width of the proton. By examining a previously unexplored energy-level transition in the hydrogen atom, Lothar Maisenbacher and colleagues ...

New software, developed by the University of Sheffield spin-out AENi aims to transform how the world's essential net-zero infrastructure is planned. The new digital platform will help the organizations shaping the world's ...
Phys.org / A super stable laser on the moon could guide future lunar missions and improve our timekeeping
Scientists are proposing to build a laser in a crater on the moon to help future lunar missions land safely in the dark and find their way around. This ultra-stable light source could also help us keep time more accurately, ...
Phys.org / A low-cost microscope to study living cells in zero gravity
As space agencies prepare for human missions to the moon and Mars, scientists need to understand how the absence of gravity affects living cells. Now, a team of researchers has built a rugged, affordable microscope that can ...
Phys.org / AI system TongGeometry generates and solves olympiad-level geometry problems
The International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) is a prestigious competition featuring talented high school students from around the world, in which competitors solve complicated mathematical problems. Geometry problems from ...
Medical Xpress / DeepRare AI outperforms doctors on rare disease diagnosis in head-to-head test
Rare diseases are complex medical disorders that are notoriously difficult to diagnose because many present with a wide variety of symptoms that can overlap with more common illnesses. Currently, around 300 million people ...
Medical Xpress / Your gut microbes can be anti-aging—scientists are uncovering how to keep your microbiome youthful
People have long given up on the search for the Fountain of Youth, a mythical spring that could reverse aging. But for some scientists, the hunt has not ended—it's just moved to a different place. These modern-day Ponce ...
