Phys.org / Sewers have been hiding a climate problem in plain sight, and this new tool finally exposes its true scale
Methane is the second-largest greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. According to the Climate and Clean Air Coalition, anthropogenic methane emissions account for nearly 45% of current net warming, making it an important factor ...
Tech Xplore / Molecular interface tweak unlocks more reliable perovskite solar cells, challenging common assumption
Perovskite solar cells are a rapidly advancing photovoltaic technology that has seen a dramatic rise in power conversion efficiency in recent years. A key driver of this progress is the use of molecular charge-selective contacts—ultrathin ...
Phys.org / Organic matter diversity determines how much iron is available for marine life, study finds
How much of the essential trace element iron remains available for marine life in the ocean depends critically on the diversity of organic molecules in seawater, according to new research published in Nature Communications ...
Phys.org / Is the SEC slow-releasing market-moving information?
IPOs are headline-grabbing events. But public companies raise even more capital through post-IPO issuances of shares, also known as seasoned equity offerings (SEOs). In 2025, total SEO proceeds topped $175 billion, as compared ...
Medical Xpress / Smart soft sensors restore surgeons' sense of touch in minimally invasive procedures
Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi have developed soft, flexible sensors that help restore a surgeon's sense of touch during minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery. These procedures allow for faster recovery and less pain, but surgeons ...
Medical Xpress / Allergic rhinitis could lead to hearing impairment in children, teens
Allergic rhinitis (AR) could lead to hearing impairment in children/adolescents, according to a study published online April 9 in Frontiers in Pediatrics.
Medical Xpress / Bacteriophages: Meet the viruses that hunt superbugs
Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect and kill bacteria. These microscopic predators are found everywhere, from soil and water to food and the human gut. Because they attack only specific bacteria, researchers ...
Phys.org / Perseverance and Curiosity panoramas reveal dual sides of Mars
NASA's Curiosity and Perseverance rovers have captured two 360-degree landscapes that highlight how the missions are revealing details of the Red Planet's formation, watery past, and potential for life. Located 2,345 miles ...
Medical Xpress / Why your brain turns against you during arguments, and what to do about it
My ex once told me, mid-argument, that I was the most unempathetic person he'd ever met. It was a low blow. I'm a clinical psychologist. Empathy is literally my job.
Phys.org / Airborne desert dust may warm climate far more than expected, new analysis shows
Atmospheric dust plays a dual role in Earth's climate: it reflects some sunlight back into space while also absorbing and retaining the planet's heat like an insulating blanket. But while dust likely cools the planet overall, ...
