Phys.org / Conventional entanglement can have thousands of hidden topologies in high dimensions
Researchers from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, in collaboration with Huzhou University, discovered that the entanglement workhorse of most quantum optics laboratories can have hidden topologies, reporting ...
Phys.org / The way we manage fires needs to shift from 'siloed' to 'connected,' experts argue
It may seem obvious that climate change is making bushfires worse, but the truth is more complicated.
Medical Xpress / For community-treated hepatitis C patients, earlier cure confirmation shows promise
Millions of people in the U.S. and around the world are living with hepatitis C virus (HCV). But over the past decade, direct-acting antivirals (DAA) have proven effective against HCV, curing more than 95% of those who complete ...
Medical Xpress / Heart attack deaths spike during the holidays
The holidays can turn deadly as research shows that more people die from heart attacks during the last week of December than at any other time of the year. While being aware of the signs of a heart attack and taking steps ...
Medical Xpress / Why some brains switch gears more efficiently than others
The human brain is constantly processing information that unfolds at different speeds—from split-second reactions to sudden environmental changes to slower, more reflective processes such as understanding context or meaning.
Phys.org / Flat Fermi surface in altermagnets enables quantum limit spin currents
The key feature of spintronic devices is their ability to use spin currents to transfer momentum, enabling low-energy, high-speed storage and logical signal control. These devices are usually manipulated by electric currents ...
Phys.org / Organic materials conduct ions in solids as easily as in liquids thanks to flexible sidechains
Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading to a steep decrease in ionic conductivity. Now, scientists have synthesized a new class of materials, ...
Phys.org / Earthquake swarm continues to rattle Northern California city, seismologists say
A swarm of at least a dozen earthquakes reaching up to magnitude 3.9 rattled San Ramon near San Francisco, the U.S. Geological Survey reports.
Medical Xpress / EACVI: Myocardial injury risk increased after AMI with elevated epicardial adipose tissue volume
Patients with elevated epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) exhibit greater acute myocardial injury following acute myocardial infarction (AMI), according to a study presented at the annual congress of the European Association ...
Phys.org / SPHEREx telescope completes first full-sky infrared map in 102 colors
Launched in March, NASA's SPHEREx space telescope has completed its first infrared map of the entire sky in 102 colors.
Medical Xpress / Could cheese protect your brain health? Study links high-fat cheese and cream to lower dementia risk
Eating more high-fat cheese and high-fat cream may be linked to a lower risk of developing dementia, according to a new study published in Neurology. This study does not prove that eating high-fat cheese and high-fat cream ...
Phys.org / Are talented youth nurtured the wrong way? Top performers develop differently than assumed, says study
Traditional research into giftedness and expertise assumes that the key factors to develop outstanding achievements are early performance (e.g., in a school subject, sport, or in concerts) and corresponding abilities (e.g., ...
