Phys.org / Simulations and experiments meet: Machine learning predicts gold nanocluster structures
Researchers at University of Jyväskylä (Finland) advance understanding of gold nanocluster behavior at elevated temperatures using machine learning-based simulations. This information is crucial in the design of nanomaterials ...
Medical Xpress / AI tool can predict which trauma patients need blood transfusions before they reach the hospital
Severe bleeding is one of the most common and preventable causes of death after traumatic injury, yet currently available tools have poor ability to determine which patients urgently need blood transfusions. A new multinational ...
Phys.org / Study strengthens the potential of mycoprotein as an alternative to meat
Plant-based food as an alternative to meat is high on the agenda today, and mycoprotein (fungal protein) in particular has come into focus in recent years. A new doctoral thesis from the University of Borås in Sweden, has ...
Tech Xplore / New design tool 3D-prints woven metamaterials that stretch and fail predictably
Metamaterials—materials whose properties are primarily dictated by their internal microstructure, and not their chemical makeup—have been redefining the engineering materials space for the last decade. To date, however, ...
Phys.org / Controlling magnetism to unlock better hydrogen storage alloys
Hydrogen is expected to play a central role in future clean energy systems, but storing it efficiently and safely remains one of the biggest challenges to its widespread adoption. Solid-state hydrogen storage, in which hydrogen ...
Phys.org / Jupiter's slimmer profile: Giant planet revealed to be narrower at equator
For over 50 years, we thought we knew the size and shape of Jupiter, the solar system's largest planet. Now, Weizmann Institute of Science researchers have revised that knowledge using new data and technology. In a new study ...
Phys.org / An unusual dust storm on Mars reveals how the red planet lost some of its water
The current image of Mars as an arid and hostile desert contrasts sharply with the history revealed by its surface. Channels, minerals altered by water, and other geological traces indicate that the red planet was, in its ...
Phys.org / Can a bird be an illegal immigrant? How the White Australia era influenced attitudes to the bulbul
In early January, authorities from South Australia's Department of Primary Industries took to the streets of Adelaide on the hunt for a suspicious individual.
Phys.org / Removing livestock from grasslands could compromise long-term soil carbon storage
Removing sheep and other livestock entirely from upland grasslands—a strategy often promoted as a way to boost carbon storage and tackle climate change—may actually reduce the most stable forms of soil carbon, according ...
Phys.org / Blood tests in young bald eagles track PFAS pollution across Wisconsin River sites
It hadn't been a successful morning for the Great Lakes Eagle Health team. Traveling by boat, truck, and foot, the team was searching for active eagle nests along the Wisconsin River in Nekoosa, Wisconsin. Tree one was a ...
Phys.org / Study ties particle pollution from wildfire smoke to 24,100 US deaths per year
Chronic exposure to pollution from wildfires has been linked to tens of thousands of deaths annually in the United States, according to a new study.
Medical Xpress / Neural implant approach regrows surrounding skull, ensuring safe access to the brain
A study led by Dartmouth Engineering professors demonstrates a possible new technique for connecting electronic implants with the surface of the brain, as well as a new method for ensuring safe, long-term medical access to ...
