Phys.org / Casimir forces in twisted anisotropic gratings: A path to self-tuning nanophotonic systems
A team of scientists from Skoltech and MIPT has investigated how the Casimir effect can be used to precisely control the angular orientation of nanostructures. The results of the study have been published in the journal Physical ...
Phys.org / Burned stone, child's bones, and lost jewelry hint at prehistoric mining camp high in the Pyrenees
In the past, scientists thought that prehistoric peoples only traveled briefly through high-altitude mountain areas, rather than staying to take advantage of their resources. But new evidence suggests that, starting about ...
Phys.org / New 'ecclesiastical' moth named after Pope Leo XIV
Distinguished by its striking colors and a name that carries the weight of a high ecclesiastical office, a new species of moth has been discovered in the rugged terrain of Greece. When researchers from the Tyrolean State ...
Medical Xpress / AI pathology framework can enable a deeper understanding of cancer
The digital transformation of pathology is opening up new possibilities for cancer diagnosis. Today's artificial intelligence (AI) techniques now go far beyond mere automation: they make it possible to extract previously ...
Tech Xplore / Move over cassette tapes, adhesive tape has memory too
Materials can store information about their past—like a crease in a piece of paper that has been unfolded is a "memory" of being folded—that can be retrieved or read out and used for various purposes. In everyday life, combination ...
Phys.org / Time-varying magnetic fields can engineer exotic quantum matter
Quantum technology has promising potential to revolutionize how large and complex amounts of information are processed. While already in use primarily in laboratory and research settings globally, quantum technologies are ...
Phys.org / A study on intergenerational coexistence at a university helps dismantle stereotypes associated with ageism
Two researchers from the Department of Humanities at Pompeu Fabra University (UPF) have analyzed the experiences of older students in an intergenerational lifelong learning program at UPF. The study helps dismantle stereotypes ...
Medical Xpress / Specialist inpatient neurorehabilitation has a positive impact on patients with functional neurological disorders
A first-of-its-kind study by the National Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (NUH) has demonstrated how specialist inpatient rehabilitation can result in significant and lasting improvements ...
Science X / The paradox of plenty: How Europe's first farmers grew more people, not taller ones
The first farmers of Europe experienced a significant rise in population, something which impacted their height at the same time. About 8,500 years ago, the adoption of farming led to the surprising result of more babies ...
Phys.org / Room-temperature nanoscale measurements could accelerate molecular electronics research
Researchers at the University of Alicante (UA) have developed a highly precise method for measuring distances at the nanometer scale at room temperature, opening up new avenues in molecular electronics research. The team, ...
Medical Xpress / Vitamin C and cancer: Was Nobel laureate Linus Pauling on to something?
Linus Pauling was one of the most brilliant scientists of the 20th century. He won two Nobel prizes and transformed our understanding of chemical bonds and the structure of proteins. Late in his career, though, he became ...
Medical Xpress / New research could reshape how future NHS treatments are evaluated
Researchers from the University of Sheffield are leading work that will significantly influence how health care treatments are assessed and approved across the UK. The researchers, based at the Sheffield Center for Health ...
