Phys.org / Superfluids are supposed to flow indefinitely. Physicists just watched one stop moving
Ordinary matter, when cooled, transitions from a gas into a liquid. Cool it further still, and it freezes into a solid. Quantum matter, however, can behave very differently. In the early 20th century, researchers discovered ...
Medical Xpress / Study reveals better hearing with cochlear implants leads to increased music listening time
A new study examining music habits among cochlear implant users has found that better hearing ability with the implant—as measured by standard speech tests—significantly correlates with increased time spent listening ...
Medical Xpress / Cesarean and assisted vaginal births show similar long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes
A new population-based cohort study of more than 500,000 births in British Columbia offers reassuring evidence about the long-term safety of cesarean delivery and assisted vaginal delivery (with forceps or vacuum) when it ...
Medical Xpress / It takes two: Genes ATP13A2 and GBA1 interact to drive neurodegeneration
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease, affecting more than 10 million people worldwide. People with this condition may experience tremors, limb stiffness, gait ...
Phys.org / Black and Latino teens show stronger digital literacy than white peers
A study by UC Riverside and USC education scholars found that Black and Latino teens are significantly more adept than their white peers at detecting online disinformation—particularly content related to race and ethnicity.
Phys.org / Hybrid AI-physics method developed for accurate aerosol remote sensing
A research team from the Aerospace Information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (AIRCAS) has developed a new method combining deep learning with physical radiative transfer modeling to improve the retrieval ...
Medical Xpress / Intravenous tenecteplase not recommended for central retinal artery occlusion
Intravenous tenecteplase administered within 4.5 hours after onset of central retinal artery occlusion does not improve vision recovery at 30 days compared with oral aspirin, according to a study published in the Jan. 29 ...
Phys.org / Satellite study reveals 24.2 billion ton annual groundwater loss in High Mountain Asia
A recent satellite-based study has uncovered alarming declines in groundwater storage across High Mountain Asia (HMA), widely known as the "Asian Water Tower." This critical water source, which sustains agricultural irrigation, ...
