Tech Xplore / New AI software set to accelerate delivery of vital net-zero infrastructure
New software, developed by the University of Sheffield spin-out AENi aims to transform how the world's essential net-zero infrastructure is planned. The new digital platform will help the organizations shaping the world's ...
Phys.org / 3D method can accurately measure gravity in wide binary stars, as demonstrated by pilot study
Since the third Gaia data release in 2022, wide binary stars with separation greater than several thousand astronomical units have been intensely investigated across the world, to probe the nature of gravity in the low acceleration ...
Phys.org / A survival strategy inside stressed cells: Ribosomes in pairs
Ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories, consume large amounts of energy as they build the proteins that keep cells alive and functioning. When cells experience stress—such as lack of nutrients or sudden drops in ...
Phys.org / Not all humans are 'super-scary' to wildlife, animal behavior study suggests
Humans have climbed to the top of the food chain by skillfully hunting, trapping, and fishing for other animals at scales that far exceed other predators, altering how the animals behave and earning the tag of a "super-predator." ...
Medical Xpress / 'Kick it while it's down' approach to cancer treatment could improve cure rates
A new study provides hope that smarter timing of cancer treatments could improve cure rates. The study's Principal Investigator, Dr. Robert Noble, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Mathematics, City, St George's, University ...
Phys.org / REGALADE: The most extensive catalog of galaxies for modern astronomy
An international team of scientists led by the Institute of Cosmos Sciences at the University of Barcelona (ICCUB) and the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC) has presented REGALADE, an unprecedented catalog covering ...
Phys.org / Machine learning algorithm fully reconstructs LHC particle collisions
The CMS Collaboration has shown, for the first time, that machine learning can be used to fully reconstruct particle collisions at the LHC. This new approach can reconstruct collisions more quickly and precisely than traditional ...
Phys.org / Helping beekeepers fight mites through more effective treatments
Researchers from the USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and the University of California, Davis, are helping beekeepers protect their colonies from destructive varroa mites. In a new study, the researchers investigate ...
Phys.org / Indigenous Peoples and locals report a drastic decline in bird size across three continents
Birds currently inhabiting many territories across Africa, Latin America and Asia are, on average, considerably smaller than those that predominated in 1940. This is the conclusion of an international study led by the Institute ...
Phys.org / Record-breaking Antarctic drill reveals 23 million years of climate history
An international team featuring faculty at Binghamton University, State University of New York has drilled the longest ever sediment core from under an ice sheet, providing a record stretching back millions of years that ...
Medical Xpress / Can psychopaths change?
Psychopaths might account for only about 1% of the general population, but they account for a disproportionate share of violent crime.
Phys.org / Why some tunes stick: Mathematical symmetry helps explain catchy melodies
Why do some melodies feel instantly right, balanced, memorable and satisfying, even if you have never heard them before? New research from the University of Waterloo suggests that more than creativity is at play.
