Phys.org / Unexpected oscillation states in magnetic vortices could enable coupling across different physical systems
Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have uncovered previously unobserved oscillation states—so-called Floquet states—in tiny magnetic vortices. Unlike earlier experiments, which required energy-intensive ...
Medical Xpress / SARS-CoV-2 is on the decline in animals, researchers find
During the first few years of the COVID-19 pandemic, the virus SARS-CoV-2 was detected in an increasing number of non-human animal species. This included many wild animal species as well as domestic animals such as dogs and ...
Phys.org / Astronomers build molecular cloud atlas for nearby Andromeda galaxy
Astronomers from Cardiff University, UK, have employed the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA) to explore the nearby Andromeda galaxy. Results of the observational campaign, published December ...
Phys.org / How a biological version of rock-paper-scissors determines if lizard colors are maintained or lost
Two new studies into lizard colors reveal how one species maintains its colorful diversity while others are losing their ancient colors. And the changes are being driven by the biological equivalent of rock-paper-scissors.
Phys.org / Identifying where lithium ions reside in a new solid-state electrolyte that could lead to improved batteries
Recent research published in Science introduces a promising solid electrolyte material that could improve the performance of next-generation lithium batteries, particularly at lower temperatures. Illinois Institute of Technology ...
Tech Xplore / Discrete spatial diffusion models data while obeying scientific principles
Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a new approach that addresses the limitations of generative AI models. Unlike generative diffusion models, the team's Discrete Spatial Diffusion approach honors ...
Medical Xpress / Control valve discovered in gut's plumbing system may hold answers to constipation and diarrhea
Although constipation and diarrhea may seem like opposite problems, they both hinge on the same underlying issue: how much fluid moves into the gut. These common issues affect millions of people in the U.S. each year, yet ...
Medical Xpress / Hormone estradiol shapes women's brain responses to threat after trauma, study finds
Women are more than twice as likely as men to develop stress-related conditions such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but the biological mechanisms underlying that risk have remained poorly understood. New research ...
Phys.org / Study offers possible solution to a gravitational wave mystery
Scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder may have solved a pressing mystery about the universe's gravitational wave background.
Phys.org / New method reveals how mutations drive transthyretin amyloidosis and guides precision drug design
An international research team reveals new molecular mechanisms associated with pathogenic mutations in the protein transthyretin that cause transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR), a group of fatal progressive diseases. The results, ...
Phys.org / A tug-of-war explains a decades-old question about how bacteria swim
Scientists have uncovered a new explanation for how swimming bacteria change direction, providing fresh insight into one of biology's most intensively studied molecular machines.
Medical Xpress / Origin cells for common malignant brain tumor in young adults uncovered
IDH-mutant glioma, caused by abnormalities in a specific gene (IDH), is the most common malignant brain tumor among young adults under the age of 50. It is a refractory brain cancer that is difficult to treat due to its high ...
