Phys.org / Active solar region observed for record 94 days
In May 2024, the strongest solar storm in twenty years raged. An international team led by ETH Zurich observed it. Their findings are now helping to improve space weather forecasts.
Phys.org / AMOC collapse simulations reveal what could happen to the ocean's carbon
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is the system of currents responsible for shuttling warm water northward and colder, denser water to the south. This "conveyor belt" process helps redistribute heat, ...
Medical Xpress / Successful 40-Hz auditory stimulation in aged monkeys suggests potential for noninvasive Alzheimer's therapy
A research team from the Kunming Institute of Zoology (KIZ) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has demonstrated for the first time in non-human primates that auditory stimulation at 40 Hz significantly elevates β-amyloid ...
Phys.org / New framework unifies space and time in quantum systems
Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space and time has remained fundamentally disconnected. Relativity unifies space and time into a single ...
Phys.org / Fault-tolerant quantum computing: Novel protocol efficiently reduces resource cost
Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could soon outperform classical computers on some complex computational problems. These computers rely on qubits, units of quantum ...
Medical Xpress / Microbial patterns in colorectal tumors may predict patient survival and disease progression
A recent study shows that bacteria living inside colorectal tumors form distinct ecosystems that are closely linked to how the disease progresses and patient outcomes. These "tissue-resident" microbes appear to play an integral ...
Medical Xpress / Higher intake of food preservatives linked to increased cancer risk
A higher intake of food preservatives, widely used in industrially processed foods and beverages to extend shelf-life, is associated with a modestly increased risk of cancer, finds a study from France published in The BMJ.
Phys.org / The book only gets 3 stars... but is considered great literature
A new study from Aarhus University shows that star ratings of books are not always accurate. Average ratings on Goodreads can hide both literary classics and highly divided reading experiences—and can therefore be a misleading ...
Phys.org / AI tool can take a cattle's temperature with only a photo
What if you could look into a cow's face and know whether it had a fever? A new tool from the Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision Lab at the University of Arkansas uses artificial intelligence and thermal cameras ...
Medical Xpress / Stopping weight loss drugs linked to weight regain and reversal of heart health markers
Stopping weight loss drugs is followed by weight regain and reversal of beneficial effects on heart and metabolic health markers such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure, finds a study published in The BMJ.
Phys.org / Economics has lost the narrative thread, says leading expert
Economics could do with less mathematics and more story, says Canada's most-cited economist.
