Phys.org / Airborne desert dust may warm climate far more than expected, new analysis shows
Atmospheric dust plays a dual role in Earth's climate: it reflects some sunlight back into space while also absorbing and retaining the planet's heat like an insulating blanket. But while dust likely cools the planet overall, ...
Medical Xpress / Adenotonsillectomy improves sleep efficiency in pediatric obstructive sleep apnea
For many children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), adenotonsillectomy (T&A) improves sleep efficiency (SE) and resolves OSA, according to a study published online April 12 in Laryngoscope: Investigative Otolaryngology.
Phys.org / Magnet with near-zero external field could reshape future electronics
An international research team led by DTU has developed a new magnetic material that features a stable internal magnetic structure, almost no external magnetic field, and retains these properties above room temperature. These ...
Phys.org / Perseverance and Curiosity panoramas reveal dual sides of Mars
NASA's Curiosity and Perseverance rovers have captured two 360-degree landscapes that highlight how the missions are revealing details of the Red Planet's formation, watery past, and potential for life. Located 2,345 miles ...
Medical Xpress / Children may be born with two complex cognitive functions already established, research reveals
A new study is the first to show that two of our most sophisticated cognitive functions, using and understanding language and being able to sense how other people feel, have distinct origins in the brain in young children—matching ...
Phys.org / Wildfires leave lasting risks: Improving predictions of hazardous debris flows in burned areas
In August of 2020, the Grizzly Creek fire burned more than 30,000 acres around Interstate 70 in Colorado's Glenwood Canyon. The following summer, several rainstorms swept across the area and sent devastating debris flows, ...
Medical Xpress / Study shows sharp rise in rate of dangerous water bead ingestions among young children
A new study reveals that ingestions of water beads by young children have surged in recent years. Researchers at the Center for Injury Research and Policy of the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children's ...
Phys.org / Investigating the disordered heart of glass
Recent research led by the University of Trento reveals that fundamental atomic vibrations remain unchanged also in ultra-stable glasses. This discovery advances the decade-long debate on the physics of disorder and opens ...
Medical Xpress / Novel theranostic approach for radioimmunotherapy achieves curative responses in colorectal cancer tumors
A new pretargeted radioimmunotherapy (PRIT) technique has been shown to be safe and effective in eradicating tumors from a preclinical colorectal cancer model. The multi-step theranostic approach delivers alpha-emitting radiation ...
Phys.org / Brazil's farm expansion has left a vast soil carbon debt—but one fix could help meet climate goals
The conversion of Brazil's native biomes into agricultural areas has resulted in an estimated loss of 1.4 billion tons of soil carbon. This amount is equal to the emission of 5.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide (CO₂) equivalent, ...
Phys.org / Winter's end is written in the clouds over Alaska
As winter turned to spring, the skies over the Gulf of Alaska displayed textbook examples of numerous cloud formations. Winter 2026 roared to an end in southern Alaska as parts of the coast saw below-normal temperatures and ...
Medical Xpress / Blocking energy metabolism may help treat an aggressive pediatric brain tumor
Blocking energy production pathways in an aggressive type of brain cancer in children could be a promising new therapeutic strategy, according to research in mice by Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center investigators. The paper ...
