Phys.org / An ultra-fast quantum tunneling device for the 6G terahertz era
A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a quantum device, capable of ultra-fast operation, a key step toward realizing technologies like 6G communications. This innovation overcomes a major hurdle that has long ...
Phys.org / Most people believe climate change primarily affects others
Research conducted by researchers at the University of Gothenburg shows that people tend to rate their own risk of being affected by climate change as lower than that of others. This perception may reduce individuals' willingness ...
Phys.org / Hybrid parasites threaten progress against one of the world's most widespread neglected diseases
New research led by Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) warns that hybrid forms of the parasites that cause schistosomiasis are undermining existing disease control strategies and could accelerate the spread of infection ...
Medical Xpress / Where are we at with the 'sunscreen wars'?
In Australia, we are exposed to some of the harshest and most dangerous levels of ultraviolet radiation (UV) in the world, so many of us know how important high SPF sunscreen is.
Tech Xplore / Carbon shell design curbs shuttle effect in thermal battery cathodes
Transition metal fluorides are widely regarded as promising cathode materials because of their high theoretical voltages and excellent thermal stability. However, in real batteries, these materials tend to dissolve and migrate ...
Medical Xpress / Personalizing cancer treatments significantly improves outcomes in clinical trial
Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have led the first clinical trial in the world to show that cancer drug treatments can be safely and effectively personalized based on the unique DNA of ...
Phys.org / Scientists find more active black holes in dwarf and Milky Way-sized galaxies by cutting through glare of star formation
Astronomers have completed the most comprehensive census of active galactic nuclei (AGN) to date, providing the clearest picture yet of the probability that galaxies of different sizes host active black holes.
Phys.org / Catching a radical in motion with µSR spectroscopy
Using muon spin rotation spectroscopy, researchers from Japan and Canada have successfully captured the rapid conversion of an imidoyl radical into a quinoxalinyl radical occurring within nanoseconds. The technique enabled ...
Medical Xpress / Diabetes costs the global economy trillions, says study
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder and one of the most prevalent non-communicable diseases worldwide. On average, one in ten adults is affected. The number of people living with diabetes continues to rise, ...
Phys.org / How quiet galaxies stay quiet: Cool gas feeds black holes in 'red geysers'
Astronomers have long puzzled over how some massive galaxies stop forming stars and remain dormant for billions of years—even when they still contain gas that could, in principle, fuel new stars.
Phys.org / Lysosomes in focus: New study reveals how cells keep them intact
When the cell's recycling stations, the lysosomes, start leaking, it can become dangerous. Toxic waste risks spreading and damaging the cell. Now, researchers at Umeå University have revealed the molecular sensors that detect ...
Phys.org / Study finds food waste compost less effective than potting mix alone
With an estimated 30–40% of the United States' food supply ending up as waste, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, food science and horticulture experts teamed up to study if it could lay the foundation ...
