Phys.org / Most Americans believe that migrant farmworkers should be allowed to remain in US, survey reveals
A new survey by Morning Consult and the nonprofit Physicians Committee finds that 65% of adults support establishing a special program that would allow migrant farmworkers to remain in the U.S. to help with food production. ...
Phys.org / New magnetic component discovered in the Faraday effect after nearly two centuries
Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem discovered that the magnetic component of light plays a direct role in the Faraday effect, overturning a 180-year-old assumption that only its electric field mattered.
Phys.org / Discovery of rare protist reveals previously unknown branch of eukaryotic tree of life
A research team from the Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague has discovered Solarion arienae, an extremely rare and morphologically unique unicellular eukaryote that sheds new light on early eukaryotic evolution.
Phys.org / Physicists and philosophers have long struggled to understand the nature of time: Here's why
The nature of time has plagued thinkers for as long as we've tried to understand the world we live in. Intuitively, we know what time is, but try to explain it, and we end up tying our minds in knots.
Phys.org / Stress caused by hurricane rainfall overwhelms sea anemones
Two Virginia high school students have discovered how sea anemones respond to salinity changes caused by hurricane rainfall. As hurricanes worsen due to climate change, this important information could help conservation efforts ...
Phys.org / The simulated Milky Way: 100 billion stars using 7 million CPU cores
Researchers have successfully performed the world's first Milky Way simulation that accurately represents more than 100 billion individual stars over the course of 10 thousand years. This feat was accomplished by combining ...
Phys.org / Scientist captures tiny particles for clues on what sparks lightning
Using lasers as tweezers to understand cloud electrification might sound like science fiction, but at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) it is a reality. By trapping and charging micron-sized particles ...
Phys.org / Middle-aged are the engine room of Australia but many risk burnout, report finds
Middle-aged Australians are keeping the country running—but it's taking a hefty toll on their well-being, a new report shows.
Phys.org / Offsetting blue carbon benefits: Mangrove tree stems identified as previously underestimated methane source
Mangrove ecosystems rank among the most efficient "blue carbon" systems on Earth, capable of absorbing and storing vast quantities of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). However, mangroves also release methane (CH4), a potent ...
Phys.org / ESA pinpoints 3I/ATLAS's path with data from Mars
Since comet 3I/ATLAS, the third known interstellar object, was discovered on 1 July 2025, astronomers worldwide have worked to predict its trajectory. ESA has now improved the comet's predicted location by a factor of 10, ...
