Phys.org / Quantum entanglement pushes optical clocks to new precision
By replacing single atoms with an entangled pair of ions, physicists in Germany have demonstrated unprecedented stability in an optical clock. Publishing their results in Physical Review Letters, a team led by Kai Dietze ...
Tech Xplore / From storms to sensors: How cross-border research with UK partners shapes safer and greener technologies
Since the UK rejoined Horizon Europe in 2024, cross-border research with UK partners has been delivering safer, smarter, more sustainable technologies for everyday life. On a test track in southern Germany, engineers watch ...
Phys.org / With the flip of a switch, scientists harness light to program how particles interact and assemble
NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, published in Chem, provides a simple and reversible method for forming crystals that can be used to ...
Tech Xplore / Suppressing dendrite growth for fast cycling of lithium‐metal batteries
As the electric vehicle era enters full scale, demand is increasing for batteries that can travel farther and last longer. Lithium-metal batteries have been attracting attention as a next-generation technology capable of ...
Phys.org / LED-powered e-nose detects multiple hazardous gases at room temperature
The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has developed a next-generation gas sensor technology that uses low-cost and safe LED light to precisely distinguish multiple hazardous gases. Compared with conventional ...
Phys.org / Between the Pampa and Patagonia: New clues about how ancient hunter-gatherers fed themselves
An archaeological study reveals how ancient hunter-gatherer groups lived—and survived—more than a thousand years ago in the transition zone between the Pampas and Patagonia in Argentina. The research, carried out by Martínez ...
Phys.org / New database may unlock potential of lipids in treating and preventing disease
A new tool enables biomedical researchers from around the world to quickly see the connections between lipids and proteins inside cells, thanks to a new initiative led by scientists at Oregon Health & Science University. ...
Phys.org / Turning high-emissions waste into fertilizer: Catalyst boosts urea production by coupling CO₂ with nitrogen pollutants
UNSW engineers have tackled a longstanding problem at the heart of global agriculture: how to make urea for fertilizer without the intensity of emissions associated with fossil-fuel-powered factories. The solution is outlined ...
Phys.org / Scientists deliver new molecule for getting DNA into cells
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a new molecule which carries DNA into biological cells, to treat or vaccinate against illnesses. Many existing options rely on molecules with a strong positive charge, ...
Phys.org / System isolates single extracellular vesicle surface proteins to map function
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny biological bubbles that carry nucleic acids and proteins between cells, playing an essential role in tissue repair, neuroprotection and immune health. By isolating the surface proteins ...
Medical Xpress / Why nighttime heat drives a surge in suicide-related calls to crisis lines in Louisiana
Extreme heat poses serious risks to physical health but can also trigger a mental health emergency for some people. While the link between heat and suicide is well-documented, the specific stressors that drive someone to ...
Phys.org / Hiding in plain sight: Discovery of cryptic species could double the number of vertebrates
There may be twice as many vertebrates on the planet as previous estimates claimed, according to a new study published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences. That's not because of any errors ...
