Phys.org / Statistical method developed for single-molecule fluorescence analysis
An interdisciplinary team of University of Tennessee, Knoxville researchers recently published in Biophysical Journal on their development of a new statistical method that improves analysis in single-molecule fluorescence ...
Tech Xplore / Ultra-low power, fully biodegradable artificial synapse offers record-breaking memory
In Nature Communications, a research team affiliated with UNIST present a fully biodegradable, robust, and energy-efficient artificial synapse that holds great promise for sustainable neuromorphic technologies. Made entirely ...
Phys.org / Deep-sea squid caught masquerading as sponge stalks in Pacific abyss
Cephalopods—the class of animals that comprises octopuses and squids—are ubiquitous throughout the ocean, including in the deep sea. However, researchers still don't know very much about the distribution, diversity and ...
Phys.org / Merging nanopores with nanofluidic devices could transform medicine and diagnostics
When disease begins forming inside the human body, something subtle happens long before symptoms appear. Individual molecules such as DNA, RNA, peptides, or proteins begin shifting in quantity or shape. Detecting these tiny ...
Tech Xplore / Vapor-deposition method delivers unprecedented durability in perovskite–silicon tandem solar cells
NUS researchers have developed a vapor-deposition method that dramatically improves the long-term and high-temperature stability of perovskite-silicon (Si) tandem solar cells. The findings were published in Science.
Phys.org / How mountain building and climate change have shaped alpine biodiversity over 30 million years
In a study published in Science Advances on December 19, researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with collaborators from international institutions, explored ...
Phys.org / Massive rock layer beneath Bermuda may explain island's unusual elevation
Bermuda may well be associated with exaggerated stories of missing ships and planes, but there is another mystery about this part of the Atlantic that has been puzzling scientists for decades: Why does the island appear to ...
Phys.org / Sourdough starters: How flour choice shapes microbial communities
Sourdough starter, a fermented mix of flour and water, is a staple for bakers. It's also a rich experimental testing ground for microbiologists. The bread's chewy texture and tangy taste arise from the mix of microbes that ...
Medical Xpress / 1 in 500 Alaskan deaths during pandemic was from COVID-19, state reports
Over a roughly three-year period beginning in March 2020, 1,564 Alaskans died from COVID-19.
Phys.org / Precessing magnetic jet engine model reveals power source of rare 'heartbeat' gamma-ray burst
Prof. An Tao from the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has proposed a novel "precessing magnetic jet engine" model to explain the peculiar gamma-ray burst (GRB) 250702B, a rare cosmic ...
Phys.org / Measuring how materials hotter than the sun's surface conduct electricity
Warm dense matter is a state of matter that forms at extreme temperatures and pressures, like those found at the center of most stars and many planets, including Earth. It also plays a role in the generation of Earth's magnetic ...
Tech Xplore / Creating realistic 3D scenes from everyday online photos
A new approach is making it easier to visualize lifelike 3D environments from everyday photos already shared online, opening new possibilities in industries such as gaming, virtual tourism and cultural preservation.
