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 ring to transcribe them: The unique path of poxviruses
A research team at the University of Würzburg has deciphered another aspect of poxviral gene activation. They have revealed a unique viral mechanism: A molecular ring anchors the viral copying machine to the DNA. Their findings ...
Medical Xpress / Ultra-endurance running may accelerate aging and breakdown of red blood cells
Extreme endurance running damages red blood cells in ways that may affect their ability to function properly, according to a recent study. Although the duration and long-term implications of the damage are unclear, the study ...
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. ...
Phys.org / Preservation through technology: 3D modeling of a historic building from 15th century
Led by Dr. Marco Funari, the project focused on developing a 3D model of a Grade I listed historic site, providing an accurate representation of the building's current condition to support effective management and preservation. ...
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 / Debilitating tropical virus can spread in cool weather, posing a greater health risk than previously thought
Chikungunya virus, a debilitating tropical disease caused by infected mosquito bites, poses a greater health threat in Europe than previously thought because it can be spread when air temperatures are as low as 13°C. Researchers ...
Phys.org / New research shows how to challenge the rising tide of global hate
A global team of researchers, including Professor Stephen Reicher from the School of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of St Andrews, have produced a new World Bank Working Paper offering an innovative and integrative ...
Phys.org / The term 'resilience' becoming a burden for women in agriculture, study shows
New research from Adelaide University is questioning the widespread use of the term "resilience" in Australian agriculture, arguing that its overuse can place unfair pressure on individual farmers and obscure the need for ...
Tech Xplore / People are overconfident about spotting AI faces, study finds
Most people believe they can spot AI-generated faces, but that confidence is out of date, research from UNSW Sydney and the Australian National University (ANU) has demonstrated. With AI-generated faces now almost impossible ...
Medical Xpress / Two months into 2026, Maryland mumps cases already six times last year's total
Maryland has reported six times as many mumps cases in early 2026 as it did all of last year, with most infections concentrated in the Baltimore metropolitan area, state health officials said Thursday.
Phys.org / Replacing humans with machines is leaving truckloads of food stranded and unusable
Supermarket shelves can look full despite the food systems underneath them being under strain. Fruit may be stacked neatly, chilled meat may be in place. It appears that supply chains are functioning well. But appearances ...
