Science X / Seen from Mars, an interstellar visitor looks completely different and changes what astronomers thought they knew
Last fall, a Chinese spacecraft orbiting Mars captured images of a comet from another star system, offering scientists a fresh vantage on a rare visitor.
Phys.org / High-entropy catalyst lets ammonia fuel cell reach world-class power and durability
As ammonia gains attention as a next-generation energy source capable of overcoming the limits of hydrogen storage and transport, KAIST and a joint research team have developed fuel cell technology that directly uses ammonia ...
Phys.org / New eruption discovered in the Bismarck Sea
It's a truism among oceanographers that there is more accurate mapping of the surface of the moon and Mars than of the deep-ocean floor. That's especially true for the Bismarck Sea, a relatively deep body of water north of ...
Phys.org / Bees found an unlikely new food source, and it could reshape how a destructive forest disease travels
New research published in NeoBiota has found that the Western honey bee—an introduced species to Australia—and the devastating, invasive plant fungus known as myrtle rust (Austropuccinia psidii) may have formed a mutually ...
Phys.org / AI tool fuses five satellite datasets to help track harmful algal blooms
NASA scientists have developed an artificial intelligence tool to take on a longstanding challenge in ocean waters. In a study recently published in the Earth and Space Science journal, researchers reported the tool was able ...
Phys.org / Tritium-infused graphene could sharpen the hunt for neutrino mass
While neutrinos are some of the most abundant particles in the universe, they remain among the least understood. One of the biggest puzzles is their mass: although experiments have shown that neutrinos must have some mass, ...
Phys.org / The quantum key to seeing through chaos
Researchers from the Institut des NanoSciences de Paris, the Kastler Brossel Laboratory and the University of Glasgow have developed an innovative method that renders a scattering medium transparent solely for information ...
Phys.org / Chiral carbon nanotube films deliver giant light-conversion effect
A sheet of twisted carbon nanotubes has revealed a hidden talent scientists suspected for decades but had never managed to measure. Researchers at Rice University have created large, highly ordered films of chiral carbon ...
Science X / Morning coffee may give early Parkinson's brains an unexpected edge where everyday thinking starts to slip
Forgetting familiar faces, struggling to make simple decisions, or taking longer than usual to respond to stimuli are just a few examples of how cognitive decline can appear in everyday moments for many people with Parkinson's ...
Phys.org / The complete evolution of spin glass from order to chaos
How come our universe is full of disorder, when all elementary particles appear to follow strictly ordered laws of physics? And are there organizing principles behind disorder and apparent chaos?
Phys.org / Better helium reporting to improve fission and fusion materials modeling
Standardizing calculations of the helium byproducts generated in advanced fission and fusion energy system materials can increase reactor safety and longevity, according to a study led by University of Michigan Engineering ...
Phys.org / Cows can recognize familiar human faces and match them to voices
Cows show a visual preference for new human faces over a familiar one and can match a known handler's voice to their face, according to a study published in the open-access journal PLOS One by Océane Amichaud of INRAE in ...
