Tech Xplore / New two-electrode method tracks water electrolysis degradation in real time
A Korean research team has developed a two-electrode-based real-time diagnostic technology capable of precisely analyzing the causes of performance degradation in anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) systems ...
Phys.org / Preserved orchids show pollination has fallen 60% since the 1970s
With their dazzling blooms, orchids are among the most famous and collected flowering plants on Earth. But orchids are not just beautiful and rare. They can also provide clues into the broader health of global ecosystems.
Medical Xpress / Knife deaths push average victim age to 14 among children in England
The average age of a young fatal stab victim is now 14, indicates an analysis of the causes of death among children and teens in England between 2019 and 2024, published online in Emergency Medicine Journal.
Phys.org / Flat optics move toward market with 300-per-second metalens production
A collaborative research group has developed a fully automated roll-to-roll manufacturing platform capable of producing large-area visible metalenses at a rate of 300 units per second, marking a major breakthrough in translating ...
Phys.org / First physical evidence of Peruvian Hairless Dogs at Wari site uncovered in Peru
A study published in the Journal of Anthropological Archaeology combined zooarchaeology with multi-isotopic analysis to reveal the diverse life histories of ancient dogs in the Wari Empire (ca. 600–1050 CE). Not only has ...
Phys.org / Methane emerges from interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it exits the solar system
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is now on its way out of our solar system, never to return. The comet was only the third-ever detected object to originate from outside our solar system. Traveling at high speeds, it looped around ...
Medical Xpress / 'Fingerprints' of childhood cancer treatment provide clues that may help mitigate second cancers
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital today report how lifesaving childhood cancer treatments leave "fingerprints" on DNA, which can lead to second neoplasms (cancers or cancer-like diseases) decades later. ...
Phys.org / Mediterranean mussel farming could collapse by 2050
Greenhouse gas emissions are heating our atmosphere and oceans, and turning seawater more acidic. One of the myriad expected impacts of these conditions is a reduction in farming yields of shellfish, such as oysters and mussels. ...
Medical Xpress / 3D-printed brain sensors may unlock personalized neural monitoring
Soft electrodes designed to perfectly match a person's brain surface may help advance neural interfaces for neurodegenerative disease monitoring and treatment, according to a new study led by Penn State researchers. Neural ...
Phys.org / Ethiopia's Afar Rift provides glimpse into life and death 100,000 years ago
The study of ancient cultures around Ethiopia during the Middle Stone Age (MSA) time period is important for understanding how some of the first Homo sapiens lived and eventually left Africa. Unfortunately, there are not ...
Phys.org / Prenatal opioid exposure in babies doesn't predict future classroom performance, study finds
Every 25 minutes in the United States, a baby is diagnosed with neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS), a condition that occurs in newborns who have been exposed to opioids in the womb and develop withdrawal after birth, according ...
Phys.org / PFAS detected in dolphin milk may pass from mothers to calves
Researchers have found that a group of chemicals known as PFAS can be transferred from mother dolphins to their nursing calves, adding to the evidence that these persistent contaminants can be transferred from mothers to ...
