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 / New levitating sensors could pave way to dark matter detection and quantum sensing
A new type of sensor that levitates dozens of glass microparticles could revolutionize the accuracy and efficiency of sensing, laying the foundation for better autonomous vehicles, navigation and even the detection of dark ...
Phys.org / Pinning down spinless glueballs: New look at hidden structure inside subatomic particles
SUNY Poly Professor of Physics Dr. Amir Fariborz recently published a paper in Physical Review D titled "Spinless glueballs in generalized linear sigma model." The work takes on a central challenge in modern physics: understanding ...
Phys.org / From static papers to living models: Turning limb development research into interactive science
The choreographed movements that cells perform to form complex biological shapes, like our hands, have fascinated scientists for centuries. Now, researchers at EMBL Barcelona have launched LimbNET, an open-access online platform ...
Phys.org / X-ray imaging reveals how silicon anodes maintain contact in all-solid-state batteries
All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) using silicon (Si) anodes are among the most promising candidates for high-energy and long-lasting power sources, particularly for electric vehicles. Si can store more lithium than conventional ...
Phys.org / Carbon monoxide, the 'silent killer,' becomes a boon for fuel cell catalysts
Researchers have developed a technology that uses carbon monoxide, typically harmful to humans, to precisely control metal thin films at a thickness of 0.3 nanometers. This technology enables faster and simpler production ...
Phys.org / Terahertz device sets performance record and opens new quantum horizons
A prototype device that has demonstrated record-breaking longevity could help open up new frontiers in next-generation communications and computing technologies.
Phys.org / Fossils reveal anacondas have been giants for over 12 million years
A University of Cambridge-led team has analyzed giant anaconda fossils from South America to deduce that these tropical snakes reached their maximum size 12.4 million years ago and have remained giants ever since.
Phys.org / Why your faucet drips: Water jet breakup traced to angstrom-scale thermal capillary waves
Some phenomena in our daily lives are so commonplace that we don't realize there could be some very interesting physics behind them. Take a dripping faucet: why does the continuous stream of water from a faucet eventually ...
Medical Xpress / Experimental drug repairs DNA damage caused by common diseases
Cedars-Sinai scientists have developed an experimental drug that repairs DNA and serves as a prototype for a new class of medications that fix tissue damage caused by heart attack, inflammatory disease or other conditions.
Medical Xpress / Pegcetacoplan—the 'closest thing to a cure' for rare, severe kidney disease
A rare and life-threatening kidney disease in children finally has an effective therapy, thanks in large part to pioneering research and clinical leadership from University of Iowa Health Care Stead Family Children's Hospital.
Phys.org / Birds shift to higher mountain elevations in Europe as climate warms
Many bird species have moved toward colder areas in the mountains of Europe as the climate has warmed over the past two decades. Sunny southern slopes attract birds to live at higher elevations than do shadier northern slopes.
