Phys.org / A climate fix with a hidden catch: Cutting methane reshapes ozone layer's comeback in unexpected ways
Reducing methane emissions will slow climate change but could also slow the recovery of the stratospheric ozone layer, new research from the University of Reading shows.
Phys.org / Catalysts that prevent boil-off losses in liquid hydrogen production hold promise for a hydrogen-energy society
A joint research team has discovered high-performance catalysts capable of significantly reducing "boil-off losses," which had been a longstanding issue in liquid hydrogen storage and transportation. These composite catalysts, ...
Phys.org / Mercury's water ice may have been deposited by a larger, slower impactor than previously thought—in only one day
The source of the significant water ice deposits hidden in Mercury's polar regions has been a topic of debate among researchers. A new study, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, suggests that these ...
Medical Xpress / How a remarkable trial on bedrest during the Korean War led to evidence‑based medicine
In 1959, a young doctor named David Sackett stumbled on a clinical trial that would change his life—and most of ours. The study showed that conventional wisdom on bed rest in medicine was wrong. And it helped lead Sackett ...
Medical Xpress / Brain waste maps reveal 'nearest exit' routes and hidden Alzheimer's breakdown
Think of the brain as if it were a house. Insulated from its environment, a house relies on complex networks—pipes, drains, and disposal systems—that interface with the outside world to keep the home functional on the inside. ...
Tech Xplore / Climate-driven water stress could undercut most proposed U.S. lithium mines
The U.S. may not have enough water to support its lithium ambitions, a new Northwestern University study has found. An essential ingredient for electric vehicle (EV) batteries and other clean energy technologies, lithium ...
Science X / Your brain doesn't forget when you forgive—it does something far more surprising with those painful memories
Forgiving someone might not erase painful memories, but it can subtly update them, making past hurts feel less upsetting. It's less "forgive and forget," and more "forgive and update."
Phys.org / Triply-eclipsing triple star system discovered with TESS
Using NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers have discovered a triply-eclipsing star system. The newfound system, designated TIC 295741342, consists of two sun-like stars in an eclipsing binary and ...
Science X / Why 'football' beats 'shamrock' when your brain is dismantling every word at lightning speed
Before you even know what a word means, your brain is already playing a rapid-fire game of linguistic LEGO. Discover how our minds secretly dissect words, piece by orthographic piece, in the blink of an eye.
Tech Xplore / Redesigned catalyst pathways vent bubbles fast and boost green hydrogen efficiency
As the global transition toward carbon neutrality accelerates, "water electrolysis"—a technology that splits water electrically to produce clean hydrogen—is drawing significant attention. However, a major limitation has been ...
Medical Xpress / Vitamin D analog shuts down pancreatic cancer's shield in a clinical trial
A small clinical trial led by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute researchers has put a Salk Institute idea to the test in patients: that activating the vitamin D receptor can help reshape the protective environment surrounding ...
Phys.org / Q&A: Ancient bird species found in China's Liaoning had extra-long tail feathers for elaborate courtship
A recently discovered extinct bird from the early Cretaceous Period (approximately 121 million years ago) may have waggled its long tail feathers to attract mates, according to a study published May 27, 2026 in the open-access ...
