Medical Xpress / For adults with ADHD, or even those with just some symptoms, using smart strategies can make all the difference
Do you ever find yourself at the end of a nonstop day feeling like you haven't made progress on the things that are actually important to you? If so, you're not alone.
Phys.org / Strained liquid crystals steer soliton 'bullets' along two diagonal paths
In physics, some waves behave in a surprising way: instead of spreading out and fading, they hold their shape as they travel at constant speeds. These unusual waves, called solitons, have interested scientists since they ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers create light-activated gel that boosts ion conductivity 400-fold
Consider the chief difference between living systems and electronics: The first is generally soft and squishy while the latter is hard and rigid. Now, in work that could impact human-machine interfaces, biocompatible devices, ...
Phys.org / Finding the 'quantum needle' in a haystack: New filtering method can isolate photons
In quantum technologies, everything depends on the ability to detect the properties carried by a single photon. But in the real world, that photon of interest is often buried in a sea of unwanted light—a true "needle in a ...
Phys.org / Tropical volcanic eruptions trigger atmospheric changes that drive droughts in Asia
Volcanoes are both captivating and disastrous. Most are likely familiar with the common short-term dangers associated with them: explosive forces, lava, and even atmospheric particles disrupting air traffic. But researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Extreme heat from climate change linked to smaller babies
Exposure to extreme heat conditions is resulting in more babies being born with low birth weight, according to a new study involving Adelaide University researchers. The collaborative study, published in BMC Medicine, used ...
Phys.org / The benefits of community Trap-Neuter-Return programs for unowned cats
Although neighborhood cats may seem like a fun, charming presence, unowned cat populations have been criticized for causing harm to a community and its environment. Without proper management, stray cat populations can rise ...
Medical Xpress / Household cleaning products remain a leading source of child injury, study finds
Researchers from the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Children's Hospital have found more than an estimated 240,800 visits to U.S. emergency departments (EDs) associated with household cleaning product-related ...
Phys.org / Measuring titanium in Apollo rock to uncover moon's early chemistry
Earth and the moon may look very different today, but they formed under similar conditions in space. In fact, a dominant hypothesis says that the early Earth was hit by a Mars-sized object, and it was this giant impact that ...
Tech Xplore / Molecular 'anchors' could be key to weather-resistant perovskite solar cells
Perovskite solar cells are among the most promising technologies for making solar power cheaper and more efficient. Working with partners from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchroton), ...
Phys.org / Bigger storms, more often: New study projects likely future rainfall impacts on NZ
In the aftermath of the latest bout of extreme rainfall across New Zealand's upper North Island, there were some familiar scenes.
Phys.org / Leadership emotions are judged differently for men and women
When leaders express negative emotions such as irritability and withdrawal, behavior is often judged differently for male and female leaders, according to new research from Griffith University published in the International ...
