Phys.org / Astronomers confirm low-luminosity active galactic nucleus in nearby galaxy NGC 3221
Using ESA's XMM-Newton satellite, astronomers from Stanford University and elsewhere have conducted deep X-ray observations of a nearby galaxy known as NGC 3221. The new observational campaign detected a faint active galactic ...
Phys.org / Scientists advance quantum signaling with twisted light technology
A tiny device that entangles light and electrons without super-cooling could revolutionize quantum tech in cryptography, computing, and AI.
Phys.org / London's night workers face inequalities in pay, health, safety and dignity
A new study by UCL researchers has revealed the challenges faced by London's 1.3 million night workers, including pay inequality, health problems, transport difficulties, safety concerns and a lack of workplace dignity.
Phys.org / When Americans migrate from violent states, the risk of future violence follows them
Americans who grow up in historically violent states may move to a safer state, but they remain far more likely to die violently, according to new research co-authored at the University of California, Berkeley.
Phys.org / Adjustable DNA 'shield' can control timing and rate at which mRNA produces proteins in vivo
mRNA, widely known from the COVID-19 vaccine, is not actually a "therapeutic agent," but a technology that delivers the blueprint for functional proteins in the body and induces therapeutic effects. Recently, its application ...
Phys.org / Geodesic approach links quantum physics and gravitation
It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation is captured by Einstein's ...
Medical Xpress / Hospital visits for hallucinogen use linked to six-fold higher risk of later mania
People who have received emergency or hospital care in Canada due to hallucinogen use have a six-fold increased risk of receiving care for mania in the next three years, according to a study published in PLOS Medicine by ...
Medical Xpress / Supplement trio shows promise in reversing autism-linked behaviors in mice
Researchers led by Tzyy-Nan Huang and Ming-Hui Lin from Academia Sinica in Taiwan report that a low-dose mixture of zinc, serine, and branch-chain amino acids can alleviate behavioral deficits in three different mouse models ...
Phys.org / How have our satisfaction (and our productivity) with teleworking evolved since the COVID shock?
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the pace at which both employees and employers developed experience with telework. How has this changed employees' views on teleworking? Researchers at UGent@Work conducted a follow-up study ...
Phys.org / Historical geography helps researchers solve 2,700-year old eclipse mystery
An international team of researchers has used knowledge of historical geography to reexamine the earliest datable total solar eclipse record known to the scientific community, enabling accurate measurements of Earth's variable ...
Phys.org / Chesapeake Bay's storm surge tides can be 47% higher than the open ocean
When hurricanes or strong storms sweep up the United States' East Coast and meet the shores of the country's largest estuary, Chesapeake Bay, the familiar pattern of storm activity gets a little more complicated. A new study, ...
Medical Xpress / Brain researchers draw cellular blueprint for how we think and feel
A new study from experts with Georgia State University has achieved a long-standing goal in neuroscience: showing how the brain's smallest components build the systems that shape thought, emotion and behavior.
