Tech Xplore / In Europe first, Netherlands to allow Teslas to self-drive
In a first for Europe, the Netherlands is poised to allow Tesla owners to use their car's self-driving feature—as long as they are in the vehicle and keeping a watchful eye over it.
Tech Xplore / 'Stop hiring humans'? Silicon Valley confronts AI job panic
AI industry insiders want workers to code smarter, think harder and lean into their humanity—but still dodge the question of how many jobs artificial intelligence will destroy.
Phys.org / Astronomers find evidence for three subpopulations of merging black holes
Astronomers analyzing gravitational-wave data from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration have reported that merging binary black holes fall into three distinct categories. The study shows that the three subpopulations have their ...
Phys.org / What if dark matter came in two states?
The absence of a signal could itself be a signal. This is the idea behind a new study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, which aims to redefine how we search for dark matter, showing that it ...
Phys.org / Search for dark matter intensifies as leading detector reaches milestone
Deep underground in a Canadian mine, a refrigerator nearly 1,000 times colder than outer space has just reached its target temperature—a milestone that brings scientists one step closer to potentially detecting dark matter, ...
Phys.org / Experiments refute dark matter claim
The doctoral thesis of Sophia Hollick, Ph.D. '25, a recent graduate of Yale's Wright Lab in professor Reina Maruyama's group, has significantly contributed to answering a decades-long question in her field about whether or ...
Phys.org / Hackers meet their match: New DNA encryption protects engineered cells from within
Engineered cells are a high-value genetic asset that is key to many fields, including biotechnology, medicine, aging, and stem cell research, with the global market projected to reach $8.0 trillion USD by 2035. Yet the only ...
Phys.org / Yellowstone's magma source may be closer than thought, reshaping hazard models
Supereruptions are extremely large volcanic eruptions that eject more than 1,000 cubic kilometers of magma, rock and ash. They are among the most hazardous geological events on Earth and have profound impacts on the environment, ...
Phys.org / Glaciers rapidly declining, with extreme losses in 2025
Earth's glaciers are continuing to shrink at alarming rates, with new international research revealing that 2025 was among the worst years on record for global ice loss. Published in the Climate Chronicles collection of Nature ...
Phys.org / Earthrise to Earthset: How the planet's climate has changed since the photo that inspired the environmental movement
A new Earthset image has been captured by the crew of Artemis II, 58 years since the iconic Earthrise photograph taken by the crew of Apollo 8. Over these past six decades, the climate has changed dramatically.
Phys.org / 'Voorhees law' explains why the slower car often catches up
Many drivers will know the feeling: you pull ahead of the slower car you've been stuck behind and cruise the open road ahead at your own, faster speed. By the time you reach the next stop light, you're sure that you've left ...
Phys.org / Artemis II crew will endure 3,000°C on re‑entry. A hypersonics expert explains how they will survive
After successfully completing their mission to the moon, the Artemis II crew are about to return to Earth.
