Phys.org / Watching quantum behavior in action: MagnetoARPES reveals time-reversal symmetry breaking in a kagome superconductor
Electron movement and structures described in quantum physics allow researchers to better understand how and why materials like superconductors behave as they do. Rice University researchers Jianwei Huang and Ming Yi have ...
Phys.org / Flood tolerant wetland crops could also support nature recovery, finds new research
Research led by the University of Cambridge and the RSPB shows that farming wetland-adapted crops on wetter peat—known as paludiculture—can support richer and more diverse bird communities than drained grassland.
Phys.org / Simple 'cocktail' of amino acids dramatically boosts power of mRNA therapies and CRISPR gene editing
Lipid nanoparticles, or LNPs, best known as the delivery vehicle for the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines received by billions of people, are now at the center of a much larger medical revolution. Researchers are racing to use them ...
Medical Xpress / 'I felt like a specimen'—new clinical recommendations aim to improve trauma‑informed care in pelvic medicine
An estimated 64% of adults in Canada report experiencing at least one potentially psychologically traumatic event during their lifetime, and in the United States, research suggests the figure may be closer to 90%.
Phys.org / Cracking the code: How a 'prediction machine' is resurrecting the Singapore Stone
Several years ago, my linguistic research team and I began developing a computational tool we call "Read-y Grammarian." Our goal was to reconstruct the highly fragmentary text of the Singapore Stone, a relic from the 10th ...
Medical Xpress / Active ingredient of Viagra can help treat rare genetic disease
Sildenafil—an active ingredient also marketed under the name of Viagra—improves symptoms in patients with Leigh syndrome. This has now been reported in the journal Cell by researchers at Charité—Universitätsmedizin ...
Tech Xplore / Brain-inspired device could lead to faster, more energy-efficient AI hardware
A team led by engineers at the University of California San Diego has developed a new brain-inspired hardware platform that could help computer hardware keep pace with the explosive growth of artificial intelligence. By combining ...
Phys.org / Inland China experienced typhoon-related population decline 3,000 years ago, according to 'oracle bones,' AI and physics
Evidence suggests that China's "cradle of civilization" experienced marked climate disasters and social upheavals during the mid-late Holocene (around 3,000 years ago). However, the direct causes and impacts of these ancient ...
Phys.org / Fish study shows that sexual harassment behavior might matter for ecosystems
For decades, ecologists have known that how a species looks or eats affects its environment. But a new study by researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, shows that social behavior related to mating can be ...
Phys.org / Study finds nanocube cation exchange can begin on one face, not six
In a paper published today in Nature Synthesis, a team from the lab of University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) and Chemistry Department Prof. Paul Alivisatos explores the role of cation ...
Phys.org / Acoustic driving enables controlled condensation of light and matter on chip
An international research team led by Alexander Kuznetsov at the Paul Drude Institute for Solid State Electronics (PDI) in Berlin has demonstrated a fundamentally new way to control the condensation of hybrid light-matter ...
Phys.org / NASA plans to have a permanent base on the moon by 2030: How it can be done
A US Senate committee has directed NASA to begin work on a moon base "as soon as is practicable." Under legislation advanced by the Senate lawmakers, the outpost would serve as a science laboratory and proving ground, where ...
