Phys.org / Scientists rule out fourth neutrino in particle physics mystery
Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it.
Phys.org / Golden Eagles in the West appear stable, but Nevada tells a different story
Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) have been protected in North America since 1962 and their populations in the West are considered stable. However, a new study published in the Journal of Raptor Research found that the Nevada ...
Medical Xpress / A single shot of HPV vaccine may be enough to fight cervical cancer, study finds
A single HPV vaccination appears just as effective as two doses at preventing the viral infection that causes cervical cancer, researchers reported Wednesday.
Phys.org / K'gari's world famous lakes could be at risk of drying
K'gari is the world's largest sand island and known for its world-famous lakes, but research from the University of Adelaide has discovered its largest lakes could be vulnerable to drying.
Tech Xplore / Algorithm offers faster, more reliable control over language model outputs
A paper co-authored by Prof. Alex Lew has been selected as one of four "Outstanding Papers" at this year's Conference on Language Modeling (COLM 2025), held in Montreal in October.
Phys.org / Atomic switches bring molecular electronics closer to reality
Silver-based atomic switches that create stable electrical connections between individual molecules and electrodes have been developed by researchers from Japan, addressing a key challenge in wiring molecular electronics. ...
Phys.org / Priming for planned sex increases desire, frequency in parents with young children
Between the lack of sleep and free time, physical, hormonal and relationship changes, and juggling work and other life commitments, many couples find their sex lives take a hit in the transition to parenthood. Continuing ...
Phys.org / Simulations reveal how black holes generate intense light from infalling matter
Surprisingly, some of the universe's brightest objects are black holes. As scorching gas and dust flow around and into a black hole, they glow with fierce intensity across the light spectrum. Now, a team of computational ...
Medical Xpress / How the brain prioritizes bodily signals in conscious awareness
A new study shows that visual and tactile impressions that are related to our own body are prioritized for reaching conscious awareness. This helps us understand how we develop the feeling that the body is our own—through ...
Phys.org / Degraded peatlands emit nearly twice as much greenhouse gas as previously thought, study finds
For the first time, researchers have produced a detailed, high-resolution map of peatlands in the EU, showing that these areas emit twice as much greenhouse gases than previously thought. The research, led by eco-hydrologist ...
Medical Xpress / Skin-to-brain signal explains why warm hugs make us feel so good about ourselves
As winter closes in, you might start to notice your fingers and toes freezing when you go outside, or your face flushing hot when you go into a heated building. In these moments of changing temperature, we become more aware ...
Phys.org / Long-standing puzzle in electron scattering deepens with new measurement
Why does lead behave so differently from every other atomic nucleus when struck by electrons? A team of physicists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has taken an important step toward answering this question, only ...
