Phys.org / Scientists capture superconductivity's 'dancing pairs' for first time, revealing missing pieces in a decades-old theory
For the first time, scientists have directly imaged the quantum process underlying superconductivity, a phenomenon in which paired electrons cause electric current to flow without resistance at sufficiently low temperatures. ...
Phys.org / Atlantic current system could be weakening faster than expected
The Atlantic current system, or more formally the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), is more likely to weaken than previously thought. That's the conclusion of a new study published in the journal Science ...
Tech Xplore / New two-electrode method tracks water electrolysis degradation in real time
A Korean research team has developed a two-electrode-based real-time diagnostic technology capable of precisely analyzing the causes of performance degradation in anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) systems ...
Phys.org / Unearthed mega-structure hints at communal rule in Romania 6,000 years ago
Archaeologists working at the ancient settlement of Stăuceni-"Holm" in northeastern Romania have uncovered a mega-structure measuring 350 square meters dating back about 6,000 years. This is one of the few examples of a massive ...
Phys.org / Baby Neanderthals may have had a rapid growth spurt compared to modern babies
Baby Neanderthals may have been much larger and grown much more quickly than their modern Homo sapiens counterparts, according to a new study of the most intact Neanderthal infant skeleton. Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) ...
Medical Xpress / Long-term use of immunotherapy may be safe for patients with alveolar soft part sarcoma
Long-term adverse events were rare and manageable among patients with alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS), which primarily affects adolescents and young adults, who received immunotherapy beyond the standard two years, according ...
Phys.org / Laser-plasma accelerator drives free-electron laser for record 8 hours
For the first time, researchers have demonstrated that a laser-plasma accelerator can reliably drive a free-electron laser for more than eight hours. Published in Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, the result was achieved ...
Phys.org / Mediterranean mussel farming could collapse by 2050
Greenhouse gas emissions are heating our atmosphere and oceans, and turning seawater more acidic. One of the myriad expected impacts of these conditions is a reduction in farming yields of shellfish, such as oysters and mussels. ...
Medical Xpress / A deep learning pathomics platform may help predict response to immunotherapy in lung cancer patients
A biology-guided artificial intelligence model applied to routine pathology slides accurately predicted outcomes and response to immunotherapy in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), according to a ...
Medical Xpress / Distribution of Phase I lung cancer trials may be consolidating at top-performing US sites
Between 2020 and 2024, the number of unique sites in the United States where phase I clinical trials for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were conducted decreased by 44% and became increasingly concentrated at the top 20 ...
Phys.org / Costly school uniforms a barrier to education for some Kiwi kids
The cost of school uniforms is proving a barrier to education for secondary students in Aotearoa, with some missing school because they don't have a full uniform, a study from the University of Otago, Wellington—Ōtākou Whakaihu ...
Phys.org / Parrots are not just mimicking words—they use proper names like humans to identify individuals
Like many animals, parrots make sounds that suggest they are talking with each other, maybe even calling out to a specific parrot. But do they truly have names in the same way people do? To find out, Lauryn Benedict, a biology ...
