South Korea launched its largest satellite yet on its nationally developed space rocket early Thursday in the fourth of six launches planned through 2027.
Tech Xplore / AI decodes pianists' muscle activity via video
AI and human-movement research intersect in a study that enables precise estimation of hand muscle activity from standard video recordings. Using a deep-learning framework trained on a large, comprehensive multimodal dataset ...
Phys.org / Unique aquatic plant has three concurrent CO₂-concentrating mechanisms
A new study led by the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (WBG, CAS) has identified a unique trait in the aquatic plant Ottelia alismoides—it can simultaneously employ three distinct CO₂-concentrating ...
Phys.org / Is the 'hot hand' real? 'Jeopardy!' offers clues
Stanford researchers found that contestants bet bigger on Daily Doubles when they're on a streak—even though their performance barely budges.
Tech Xplore / Six criteria for the reliability of AI
Language models based on artificial intelligence (AI) can answer any question, but not always correctly. It would be helpful for users to know how reliable an AI system is. A team at Ruhr University Bochum and TU Dortmund ...
Phys.org / Antarctic mountains could boost ocean carbon absorption as ice sheets thin
Research led by polar scientists from Northumbria University has revealed new hope in natural environmental systems found in East Antarctica which could help mitigate the overall rise of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere over ...
Phys.org / New study reveals spatial patterns of crime rates and media coverage across Chicago
A spatial analysis of crime in Chicago suggests that certain environmental and socioeconomic factors, such as building density, are linked with crime rates, but these relationships differ between neighborhoods. The study ...
Phys.org / Eco-friendly method detects trace illicit drugs on surfaces in just 5 minutes
The research group FQM-215—Affordable and Sustainable Sample Preparation at the University of Córdoba has developed a method that is not only faster and easier to perform but also more environmentally sustainable. It can ...
Medical Xpress / Shapeshifting tumors unmasked: New insights into master regulators reveal therapeutic vulnerabilities
Some tumors are almost impossible to treat. That's especially true for carcinomas, which don't behave like other malignancies. Some of these tumors act as shapeshifters and start to resemble cells from other organs of the ...
Phys.org / Urban fringe areas show great potential for forest restoration
A study conducted at the University of São Paulo (USP) by researchers from the Nucleus of Analysis and Synthesis of Nature-Based Solutions (BIOTA Synthesis), a FAPESP Science Center for Development (SCD), identified approximately ...
Medical Xpress / Calcium-sensitive switch boosts the efficacy of cancer drugs
Cancer-fighting antibody drugs are designed to penetrate tumor cells and release a lethal payload deep within, but too often they don't make it that far. A new study shows how this Trojan Horse strategy works better by exploiting ...
Phys.org / Gender imbalance hinders equitable environmental governance, say UN scientists
Inclusive representation is fundamental to equitable and effective environmental governance, particularly in addressing the interconnected crises of climate change, biodiversity loss, and land degradation, the three focus ...
