Phys.org / New state of matter discovered in a quantum material
At TU Wien, researchers have discovered a state in a quantum material that had previously been considered impossible. The definition of topological states should be generalized.
Phys.org / New AI tool removes bottleneck in animal movement analysis
Researchers from the University of St Andrews have developed an AI tool that reads animal movement from video and turns it into clear, human-readable descriptions, making behavioral analysis faster, cheaper, and scalable ...
Phys.org / Imaging technique captures ultrafast electron and atom dynamics in chemical reactions
During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical products. This process entails the movement of both electrons (i.e., negatively charged particles) and ...
Phys.org / Koala overpopulation in South Australia prompts call for humane fertility management
Research into South Australia's koala populations, led by Dr. Frédérik Saltré from UTS and the Australian Museum, provides the first comprehensive population estimate for the region and identifies a cost-effective, humane ...
Medical Xpress / Native American pregnancy-related deaths: They want a voice to stop the trend
Just hours after Rhonda Swaney left a prenatal appointment for her first pregnancy, she felt severe pain in her stomach and started vomiting.
Phys.org / Nanoscopic raft dynamics on cell membranes successfully visualized for first time
A collaborative team of four professors and several graduate students from the Departments of Chemistry and Biochemical Science and Technology at National Taiwan University, together with the Department of Applied Chemistry ...
Tech Xplore / Research reveals a surprising line of defense against cyber attacks: Accountants
When Optus, Medibank and non-bank lender Latitude Financial were hit by separate cyber attacks in the past few years, millions of Australians felt the fallout: stolen personal data, disrupted services and weeks of uncertainty. ...
Tech Xplore / Solid-state material can store and release hydrogen using sunlight or LEDs
Hydrogen, a clean energy source, requires a highly reliable and safe storage system, which is currently lacking. Layered hydrogen silicane (L-HSi) is a promising, safe, lightweight, and energy-efficient solid-state hydrogen ...
Phys.org / How pointing errors impact quantum key distribution systems
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is an emerging communication technology that utilizes quantum mechanics principles to ensure highly secure communication between two parties. It enables the sender and receiver to generate a ...
Phys.org / Meta-study reveals mechanisms of animals' adaptations to cope with climate change
Climate change has a wide range of effects on wildlife. It affects seasonal migration, reproduction times, body size and mass, and disrupts ecological processes, thereby posing challenges for the populations of some species. ...
Phys.org / Teen girls cannot escape unrealistic beauty ideals on social media, researchers say
Girls between the ages of 13 and 19 are widely exposed to beauty content online that promotes products unsuitable for young skin—even when they are not actively seeking beauty-related information. Moreover, they believe ...
Phys.org / Mercury's BepiColombo Mio and Earth's GEOTAIL show shared wave frequency properties across planetary magnetospheres
An international team from Kanazawa University (Japan), Tohoku University (Japan), LPP (France), and partners has demonstrated that chorus emissions, natural electromagnetic waves long studied in Earth's magnetosphere, also ...
