Phys.org / Information collected by the world's largest radio telescope will be stored and processed by global data centers
When the Square Kilometer Array (SKA) Observatory goes online later this decade, it will create one of science's biggest data challenges. The SKA Observatory is a global radio telescope project built in the Southern Hemisphere. ...
Medical Xpress / Gestational diabetes linked to elevated risk of cognitive decline in mothers, ADHD and autism in children
A landmark international study has revealed that gestational diabetes (GDM) during pregnancy is strongly associated with declines in intellectual function for mothers and a higher risk of developmental, behavioral, and autism ...
Medical Xpress / What owning a cat does to your brain (and theirs)
Cats may have a reputation for independence, but emerging research suggests we share a unique connection with them—fueled by brain chemistry.
Tech Xplore / Advanced broadband optical signal filtering developed with chirped and tilted fiber Bragg grating
Optical signal transmission can be significantly improved by limiting the wavelength of transmitted signals. Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is a technique widely used in optical communication, sensing, and laser technologies for ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds AR/VR sports games boost mental health and social connection
Physical sports have long been known to help with anxiety and mental health. But can augmented and virtual reality sports games improve psychological well-being and reduce loneliness? Researchers at Michigan State University's ...
Phys.org / National identity can affect willingness to defend country
The issue of citizens' defense willingness has gained renewed urgency in the wake of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. For small and medium-sized states, which rely on whole-of-society defense efforts, such ...
Phys.org / Genomes uncover the extraordinary drive to survive in microbes beneath Antarctic ice
The icy world of Antarctica might not be enticing to us, but it's bustling with microscopic life. Scientists recently got a detailed glimpse at the genetics of a diverse range of microorganisms hidden beneath the West Antarctic ...
Phys.org / What Native-held lands in California can teach about resilience and the future of wildfire
It took decades, stacks of legal paperwork and countless phone calls, but, in the spring of 2025, a California Chuckchansi Native American woman and her daughter walked onto a 5-acre parcel of land, shaded by oaks and pines, ...
Phys.org / How much money do you need to be happy? Here's what the research says
Over the next decade, Elon Musk could become the world's first trillionaire. The Tesla board recently proposed a US$1 trillion (A$1.5 trillion) compensation plan, if Musk can meet a series of ambitious growth targets.
Phys.org / Physicists demonstrate controlled expansion of quantum wavepacket in a levitated nanoparticle
Quantum mechanics theory predicts that, in addition to exhibiting particle-like behavior, particles of all sizes can also have wave-like properties. These properties can be represented using the wave function, a mathematical ...
Medical Xpress / Type 2 diabetes may double risk of sepsis, large community-based study suggests
Living with type 2 diabetes (T2D) may double the risk of developing sepsis—with those aged younger than 60 years and men particularly susceptible, according to a long-term community-based study in Australia, being presented ...
Phys.org / Trilayer moiré superlattices unlock tunable control of exciton configurations
Moiré superlattices are periodic patterns formed when two or more thin semiconducting layers are stacked with a small twist angle or lattice mismatch. When 2D materials form these patterns, their electronic, mechanical, ...
