Phys.org / Strong Field Spin-Boson model revises how intense lasers drive electrons in dense matter
A team of physicists from the University of Ottawa, led by Neda Boroumand, have developed a new theoretical model that shines new light on how scientists understand the way lasers interact with dense matter, such as solids ...
Phys.org / A new way to judge how the economy performs in booms and busts
When the economy grows or shrinks, we often focus on how long the phase lasts or how deep it goes. A new paper asks a sharper question: How does actual growth compare with steady, quarter-by-quarter growth over the same period? ...
Medical Xpress / Oral vaccine strategy used modified bacterium to combat colorectal cancer
A research team investigating the use of the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes against colorectal cancer has discovered a way to build a modified version of Listeria as an oral vaccine to prime the immune system directly within ...
Medical Xpress / Spiritual practices strongly associated with reduced risk for hazardous alcohol and drug use
Individuals who engaged in spirituality were significantly less likely to exhibit hazardous use of alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, and illicit drugs, according to a new meta-analysis led by researchers at Harvard T.H. Chan School ...
Medical Xpress / Cancer stress protein helps tumors hide from immune system
A protein made by stressed cancer cells helps lung and pancreatic tumors evade the immune system, a new study shows. Led by researchers from NYU Langone Health, the work found that new drugs designed to block the action of ...
Phys.org / JWST spots most distant jellyfish galaxy to date
Astrophysicists from the University of Waterloo have observed a new jellyfish galaxy, the most distant one of its kind ever captured. Jellyfish galaxies are named for the long, tentacle-like streams that trail behind them. ...
Medical Xpress / AI for language access in surgical care: Patient preferences and an implementation framework
Language barriers contribute substantially to inequities in U.S. surgical care. Spanish-speaking patients are especially affected by communication challenges and inconsistent interpreter access during complex or time-sensitive ...
Phys.org / New amplifier design promises less noise, more gain for quantum computers
The low-noise, high-gain properties needed for high-performance quantum computing can be realized in a microwave photonic circuit device called a Josephson traveling-wave parametric amplifier (JTWPA), RIKEN researchers have ...
Medical Xpress / Destructive meningitis cases raise concerns about emerging pathogen
Penn State College of Medicine is reporting on two cases of destructive infant meningitis linked to Paenibacillus infection, documenting severe neurologic injury and raising concerns about diagnosis and treatment. Reports ...
Phys.org / New species of ancient crocodile named in honor of Welsh school teacher
A new species of crocodylomorph dating to about 215 million years ago has been described from the U.K. It has been called Galahadosuchus jonesi in recognition of David Rhys Jones, a secondary school physics teacher from Ysgol ...
Medical Xpress / Experimental vaccine protects against C. diff disease and recurrence
A novel vaccination approach developed by Vanderbilt Health researchers cleared the harmful gut bacterium Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) in an animal model of infection. An experimental vaccine administered to the mucosal ...
Medical Xpress / Mapping protein production in brain cells yields new insights for brain disease
The brain's ability to do everything from forming memories to coordinating movement relies on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time. But directly measuring this protein production, known as translation, ...
