Phys.org / No exotic physics needed: A new formation mechanism of skyrmions inside magnets
Skyrmions, in which electron spins inside a magnet are arranged like vortices, are a key structure in next-generation spintronics technology. KAIST researchers have shown that skyrmions can form using only the fundamental ...
Phys.org / Scientists discover new heavy proton-like particle at CERN
Scientists from the University of Manchester have played a leading role in the discovery of a new subatomic particle at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The particle, known as the Ξcc⁺ (Xi‑cc‑plus), is a new type ...
Medical Xpress / Botox-like nerve blocking reveals potential way to fully regenerate skin without scarring
Could wounded skin someday regrow perfectly without scars? A new study by Harvard stem cell biologists published in Cell reveals a way to fully regenerate skin by unblocking an embryonic healing mechanism that shuts off after ...
Phys.org / H5N1 in marine mammals is spreading: Research tallies over 50,000 seals and sea lions killed along South America's coast
When the H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus was discovered on a poultry farm in Asia in 1996, there was little indication that it would become so widespread and so destructive. Within 30 years, it reached every ...
Phys.org / Clearing the nanoscale bottleneck holding back next-gen electronics
Researchers at UCLA have discovered a way to dramatically improve how electrical current enters perovskite semiconductors, an emerging class of materials with enormous potential for next-generation electronics. Their research ...
Medical Xpress / AI tool shows promise in diagnosing advanced heart failure
Applying artificial intelligence techniques to cardiac ultrasound data may make it easier to identify patients with advanced heart failure, a new study has found. The study—led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine, ...
Medical Xpress / Health insurance jargon can be frustrating and confusing. Here's how to navigate it
Since the Affordable Care Act subsidies expired at the end of 2025, Americans have undoubtedly been encountering a great deal of confusing information surrounding health care costs and insurance plans.
Phys.org / Do political social media ads influence the outcome of elections?
Social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram and X, are accessed daily by millions of people worldwide. In the weeks or months leading up to elections, many political parties use social media platforms as part of their ...
Medical Xpress / 7-Tesla MRI machine uncovers new insights into PTSD
Powerful brain imaging has helped uncover why people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who engage in negative self-talk may be struggling with the first line of treatment. The discovery, published in Nature Mental ...
Phys.org / Integrative archaeogenetics reveal how Southern Andean communities adopted farming and endured crises
An interdisciplinary study published in Nature reconstructs over 2,000 years of population history in Argentina's Uspallata Valley (UV), a southern frontier of Andean farming spread in ancient times, with broader lessons ...
Medical Xpress / Discovery of tiny cell 'tunnels' finds new path to slow Huntington's disease
Huntington's disease is a devastating brain disorder that slowly robs people of movement, memory, and personality. It is caused by a toxic protein that builds in brain cells and ultimately kills them. For years, scientists ...
Phys.org / Sea creatures reveal the physics behind animal body shape diversity
Animals come in an extraordinary range of body shapes. A starfish looks nothing like an earthworm, a mouse, or a human. Yet even closely related species can appear radically different: corals, jellyfish, and sea anemones ...
