Phys.org / NASA moves forward with Artemis II tanking test that could set up moonshot mission
NASA is set to begin fueling 700,000 gallons of cryogenic propellant on the Space Launch System rocket at Kennedy Space Center on Thursday as it moves ahead with a test countdown of the Artemis II mission.
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 ...
Phys.org / 'Boomerang' earthquake simulations suggest ricocheting ruptures may be more common than previously thought
An earthquake typically sets off ruptures that ripple out from its underground origins. But on rare occasions, seismologists have observed quakes that reverse course, further shaking up areas that they passed through only ...
Medical Xpress / SNAP-47 protein may play key role in regulating how oxytocin is released within the brain
The brain not only communicates through fast electrical impulses, it also relies on slower, more diffuse chemical signals that modulate our emotional and social states over time. A study led by the Institute for Neurosciences ...
Medical Xpress / The five healthy diets that could add extra years to your life
The old saying "you are what you eat" suggests that our food choices determine our health and longevity. Now, a study published in the journal Science Advances has put some specifics on it by estimating how many extra years ...
Medical Xpress / Sleep loss linked to higher atrial fibrillation risk in working-age adults
Getting enough sleep may be more important for heart health than many busy professionals realize. A new multicenter study conducted by researchers from Kumamoto University and the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center, ...
Tech Xplore / 'Learn-to-Steer' method improves AI's ability to understand spatial instructions
Researchers from the Department of Computer Science at Bar-Ilan University and from NVIDIA's AI research center in Israel have developed a new method that significantly improves how artificial intelligence models understand ...
Phys.org / Machine learning helps solve a central problem of quantum chemistry
By applying new methods of machine learning to quantum chemistry research, Heidelberg University scientists have made significant strides in computational chemistry. They have achieved a major breakthrough toward solving ...
Tech Xplore / You can give old batteries a new life by safely recycling them
When household batteries die, it's hard to know what to do with them. So they get shoved into a junk drawer or sheepishly thrown into the trash.
Medical Xpress / Scientists find a mechanism showing how exercise protects the brain
Researchers at UC San Francisco have discovered a mechanism that could explain how exercise improves cognition by shoring up the brain's protective barrier. With age, the network of blood vessels—called the blood–brain ...
Phys.org / CT scans help detect ancient earthquakes in Hamilton Basin
In a world-first use of medical imaging technology, scientists have revealed the earthquake-generating potential of faults in the Hamilton and Hauraki areas. The study shows that hidden geological faults in Hamilton city ...
Medical Xpress / Similar kinases play distinct roles in the brain—what this could mean for future therapies
Structurally, they look similar: MNK1 and MNK2 belong to the same enzyme family and are best known for regulating how cells make proteins. Their starring role in such a crucial cellular function has cast them into the spotlight ...
