Phys.org / Wind-sculpted landscapes: Investigating the Martian megaripple 'Hazyview'
While much of Perseverance's work focuses on ancient rocks that record Mars' long-lost rivers and lakes, megaripples offer a rare opportunity to examine processes that are still shaping the surface today. Megaripples are ...
Phys.org / NASA's wideband technology demo proves space missions are free to roam
Just like your cellphone stays connected by roaming between networks, NASA's Polylingual Experimental Terminal, or PExT, technology demonstration is proving space missions can do the same by switching seamlessly between government ...
Phys.org / Physicists bring unruly molecules to the quantum party
Scientists have made leaps and bounds in bending atoms to their will, making them into everything from ultraprecise clocks to bits of quantum data. Translating these quantum technologies from obedient atoms to unruly molecules ...
Medical Xpress / FDA approves first subcutaneous drug for EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Rybrevant Faspro (amivantamab and hyaluronidase-lpuj) as the first and only subcutaneously administered therapy for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated ...
Medical Xpress / Brain injuries linked with potential risk of suicide
Adults who experience a head injury face a substantially higher risk of attempting suicide compared to those without such injuries, according to the findings from a new UK-based study.
Phys.org / I study rat nests—here's why rodents make great archivists
Rats and other rodents and pests can make great archivists.
Medical Xpress / As measles cases rise, views of MMR vaccine safety and effectiveness—and willingness to recommend it—drop
The United States is experiencing the worst year for measles cases in more than three decades, with nearly 2,000 cases confirmed by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). There have been 49 outbreaks spanning ...
Phys.org / Hybrid excitons: Combining the best of both worlds
Faster, more efficient, and more versatile—these are the expectations for the technology that will produce our energy and handle information in the future. But how can these expectations be met? A major breakthrough in ...
Phys.org / Overlooked hydrogen emissions are heating Earth and supercharging methane, research finds
Rising global emissions of hydrogen over the past three decades have added to the planet's warming temperatures and amplified the impact of methane, one of the most potent greenhouse gases, according to new research published ...
Phys.org / Prehistoric elephant footprints documented for first time in Murcia's fossil dunes
An international team, involving researchers from the University of Seville, the Andalusian Institute of Earth Sciences in Granada and the University of Huelva, has identified the first fossilized vertebrate footprints from ...
Phys.org / Measuring how materials hotter than the sun's surface conduct electricity
Warm dense matter is a state of matter that forms at extreme temperatures and pressures, like those found at the center of most stars and many planets, including Earth. It also plays a role in the generation of Earth's magnetic ...
Phys.org / One and done is not enough: Study challenges traditional evolutionary research
Every living being must cope with a changing world—summer gives way to winter, one year it floods and the next is a drought. It's obvious that populations of plants and animals must constantly face new challenges, says ...
