Phys.org / Largest ever radio sky survey maps the universe in unprecedented detail
An international collaboration using the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) has published an exceptionally detailed radio sky map, revealing 13.7 million cosmic sources and delivering the most complete census yet of actively growing ...
Phys.org / Study links 'dark pool' trading to higher risk of sudden stock price crashes
More stock trading is moving away from traditional public stock exchanges and into places called "dark pools." These are private, electronic markets where investors buy and sell stocks without showing their orders to the ...
Medical Xpress / Overlooked Aeromonas emerges as a leading cause of gastro illness in Australia
Most bacterial gastrointestinal illnesses in Australia are thought to be caused by two pathogens, Campylobacter and Salmonella. But an emerging pathogen, Aeromonas, is much more common than previously thought, with UNSW researchers ...
Phys.org / Obstacle or accelerator? How imperfections affect material strength
Imagine a material cracking—now imagine what happens if there are small inclusions in the material. Do they create an obstacle course for the crack to navigate, slowing it down? Or do they act as weak points, helping the ...
Phys.org / Scientists raise 300,000 surfclams offshore, proving open-ocean aquaculture can work
Rutgers researchers have made a discovery that could change the future of seafood farming in New Jersey. A study led by marine scientist Daphne Munroe has shown that Atlantic surfclams can be successfully farmed in the open ...
Phys.org / New AI framework reveals chemistry driving high-conductivity lithium-ion electrolytes
A new artificial intelligence framework developed at Cornell can accurately predict the performance of battery electrolytes while revealing the chemical principles that govern them, providing engineers with a new tool for ...
Phys.org / AI tool observes solar active regions to advance warnings of space weather
New research by Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) and the National Science Foundation's National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF-NCAR) has developed a new tool providing a first step toward the ability to forecast ...
Medical Xpress / Destructive meningitis cases raise concerns about emerging pathogen
Penn State College of Medicine is reporting on two cases of destructive infant meningitis linked to Paenibacillus infection, documenting severe neurologic injury and raising concerns about diagnosis and treatment. Reports ...
Phys.org / Machine learning algorithm fully reconstructs LHC particle collisions
The CMS Collaboration has shown, for the first time, that machine learning can be used to fully reconstruct particle collisions at the LHC. This new approach can reconstruct collisions more quickly and precisely than traditional ...
Medical Xpress / Myopia is driven by how we use our eyes indoors, new research suggests
For years, rising rates of myopia—or nearsightedness—have been widely attributed to increased screen time, especially among children and young adults. But new research from scientists at the SUNY College of Optometry ...
Phys.org / New species of ancient crocodile named in honor of Welsh school teacher
A new species of crocodylomorph dating to about 215 million years ago has been described from the U.K. It has been called Galahadosuchus jonesi in recognition of David Rhys Jones, a secondary school physics teacher from Ysgol ...
Phys.org / The ice on Greenland is acting strangely: Scientists believe they finally know why
Deep inside the Greenland ice sheet are giant swirling plume-like structures. These have puzzled scientists for over a decade, but UiB researchers now believe they have cracked the mystery by applying the same mathematics ...
