Medical Xpress / Families explore how a smartwatch can give early warnings of severe tantrums
Evenings in the Staal household often carried a delicate unpredictability. After a full school day—and as Ethan's medication began to wear off—the shift from playful to overwhelmed could happen in seconds. Ethan has ADHD, ...
Phys.org / Temporal anti-parity–time symmetry offers new way to steer energy through systems
The movement of waves, patterns that carry sound, light or heat, through materials has been widely studied by physicists, as it has implications for the development of numerous modern technologies. In several materials, the ...
Phys.org / Slowing down muon decay with short laser pulses
Muons are unstable subatomic particles that spontaneously and rapidly transform into other particles via a process known as electroweak decay. Altering the speed with which muons decay into other particles was so far deemed ...
Phys.org / Detecting single-electron qubits: Microwaves could probe quantum states above liquid helium
One intriguing method that could be used to form the qubits needed for quantum computers involves electrons hovering above liquid helium. But it wasn't clear how data in this form could be read easily.
Phys.org / How prolonged maternal care in horses builds better brains and improves social skills
As with humans, the maternal bond in nature is important for animals to find their way in the world. In mammals, a mother does not just provide milk; she also teaches her offspring survival skills and how to play well with ...
Phys.org / Two simple modifications cool Kenyan homes and keep mosquitoes out
Researchers in Kenya have identified two low-cost solutions that tackle the twin challenges of rising temperatures and malaria transmission.
Phys.org / Antarctic submillimeter telescope enables more complete view of the carbon cycle in star-forming regions
Chinese researchers have braved the cold and harsh environment of Antarctica in order to get a unique view of star formation in the interstellar medium (ISM). The Chinese National Antarctica and Arctic Research Expedition ...
Phys.org / Woolly rhino genome recovered from Ice Age wolf stomach
Researchers from the Center for Paleogenetics have managed to analyze the genome from a 14,400-year-old woolly rhinoceros, recovered from a tissue sample found preserved inside the stomach of an ancient wolf.
Phys.org / Scientists realize a three-qubit quantum register in a silicon photonic chip
Quantum technologies are highly promising devices that process, transfer or store information leveraging quantum mechanical effects. Instead of relying on bits, like classical computers, quantum devices rely on entangled ...
Medical Xpress / The aggressive use of antibiotics could fuel mood disorders and anxiety
Antibiotics (ABs) are among the most used pharmaceutical drugs worldwide, as they are currently the most effective medicines for the treatment of bacterial infections. An excessive use of these drugs, however, can damage ...
Phys.org / Tightening the focus of subcellular snapshots: Combined approach yields better cell slices for cryoET imaging
Taking images of tiny structures within cells is tricky business. One technique, cryogenic electron tomography (cryoET), shoots electrons through a frozen sample. The images formed by the electrons that emerge allow researchers ...
Phys.org / Medieval burials shed light on Menga dolmen's multicultural significance over thousands of years
The Menga dolmen in Antequera, Spain, is a Neolithic monument and part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. The monument, built in the fourth millennium BCE, has seen continued use for burials and rituals through the Bronze Age, ...
