Phys.org / The founding father of American literature, Charles Brockden Brown saw his nation's dark side
Murder, suicide, spontaneous combustion, sleepwalking, ventriloquism: These are some of the sensational events in the novels of Charles Brockden Brown (1771–1810). As the United States' first professional author, Brown is ...
Phys.org / Image: Mediterranean Sea breaks June surface heat record
This image shows the sea surface temperature anomaly detected in the Mediterranean Sea on June 29, 2026, compared with the average for the period 1991–2020, with dark red indicating temperatures that exceed the average by ...
Phys.org / Sound waves reconstruct Alaska fireball path after cameras miss key details
When a bright fireball streaked across the Alaska sky last spring, the usual tools scientists rely on to track such events—cameras and satellites—did not provide a detailed picture. But the meteoroid left behind something ...
Phys.org / AI analysis of data from multiple sensors can improve earthquake detection
One seismometer is often not enough to reliably detect earthquakes or human activity such as underground nuclear tests. Rather, researchers combine readings from seismometers distributed across a small geographic area to ...
Phys.org / Mission documents ecosystem interactions of radioactive waste dumped in the Atlantic between 1950 and 1990
Between 1950 and 1990, more than 200,000 barrels filled with radioactive waste were dumped in the depths of the North-East Atlantic. Following an initial mission carried out between June 15 and July 11, 2025, to map the area ...
Medical Xpress / Bacteria's 'mix-and-match' code could create new cancer-fighting drugs
A team of researchers at the University of Warwick and Monash University has solved a puzzle that has stumped drug developers for decades: how bacteria naturally create multiple versions of powerful cancer therapies. The ...
Medical Xpress / Alcohol is one of the most dangerous drugs, yet its presence is ubiquitous in social settings and celebrations
Few substances are as deeply woven into everyday life as alcohol. It is a fixture at holiday celebrations, work-related social gatherings, sporting events, airports and brunch or dinner tables. A raised glass for a toast, ...
Tech Xplore / Aquifer 'thermal batteries' may cut AI data center cooling demand and save water
Aquifer-based geothermal systems, known as aquifer thermal energy storage, could help ease the environmental stress stemming from artificial intelligence data centers in the United States. Researchers at the Prairie Research ...
Phys.org / Bacteria use linked motors to reel in resistance DNA with extreme force
Every year, bacteria kill more than a million people worldwide through infections that no longer respond to antibiotics. In many cases, why those bacteria are so hard to stop comes down to their uniquely powerful structure.
Medical Xpress / Most breast imaging facilities in both high- and low-deprivation areas offer digital breast tomosynthesis
New research has found that digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) availability at breast imaging facilities is similar across low- and high-deprivation areas, but facilities in low-deprivation areas are significantly more likely ...
Tech Xplore / Polymer cold spray can restore up to 80% of strength in damaged composite materials
Rowan University researchers have demonstrated a new method for repairing damage in advanced composite materials, offering a faster, more effective alternative to conventional repair techniques used in industries such as ...
Medical Xpress / EHA: Adding Pirtobrutinib to Venetoclax-Rituximab ups progression-free survival in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
For patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), adding pirtobrutinib to venetoclax-rituximab (PVR) yields improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared to venetoclax-rituximab (VR), according ...
