Phys.org / Deciphering the heavyweights of the tetraquark world
The CMS collaboration reports the first measurement of the quantum properties of a family of tetraquarks that was recently discovered at the LHC.
Phys.org / Epigenetics linked to high-altitude adaptation in Andes
DNA sequencing technology makes it possible to explore the genome to learn how humans adapted to live in a wide range of environments. Research has shown, for instance, that Tibetans living at high altitude in the Himalayas ...
Phys.org / Embryos show specialized asymmetry at the earliest stage
As nearly one in six couples experience fertility issues, in-vitro fertilization (IVF) is an increasingly common form of reproductive technology. However, there are still many unanswered scientific questions about the basic ...
Tech Xplore / Taming chaos in neural networks: A biologically plausible way
A new framework that causes artificial neural networks to mimic how real neural networks operate in the brain has been developed by a RIKEN neuroscientist and his collaborator. In addition to shedding light on how the brain ...
Phys.org / Self-adapting fiber component tackles heat challenges in high-power fiber lasers
Thulium fiber lasers, operating at a wavelength of 2 micrometers, are valued for applications in medicine, materials processing, and defense. Their longer wavelength makes stray light less damaging compared to the more common ...
Phys.org / Astronomers warn satellite growth may contaminate nearly all space telescope data
Light from the half a million satellites that humanity is planning to launch into Earth's orbit in the coming years could contaminate almost all the images taken by space telescopes, NASA astronomers warned Wednesday.
Medical Xpress / Single dose RSV vaccine protection found to wane over 18 months
Research led by the Veterans Affairs Portland Health Care System in Portland, Oregon, found that a single dose of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine reduced RSV infections and RSV-related emergency visits, hospitalizations, ...
Phys.org / Archaeologists discover solitary grave from ancient Kingdom of Kerma in remote Bayuda Desert
Dr. Monika Badura and her colleagues have published a study analyzing an isolated burial found in the Bayuda Desert in the journal Azania: Archaeological Research in Africa. The discovery, made at site BP937 in Sudan, has ...
Medical Xpress / A common childhood virus can drive bladder cancer development
Tackling a common childhood virus could open the door to preventing bladder cancer, according to new research.
Phys.org / Golden Eagles in the West appear stable, but Nevada tells a different story
Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) have been protected in North America since 1962 and their populations in the West are considered stable. However, a new study published in the Journal of Raptor Research found that the Nevada ...
Phys.org / New discoveries reveal Tell Abraq's role in ancient Persian Gulf trade
If there were a place that could be called the archaeological almanac of Saudi Arabian culture, it would be Tell Abraq, located on the west coast of the United Arab Emirates. This area contains traces of every cultural phase ...
Phys.org / Single-photon teleportation achieved between distant quantum dots for the first time
An international research team involving Paderborn University has achieved a crucial breakthrough on the road to a quantum internet. For the first time ever, the polarization state of a single photon emitted from a quantum ...
