Phys.org / UK observatory nervously watches growing space junk threat
In the sweeping shadow of a satellite dish, staff at the Chilbolton Observatory in southern England track a growing number of objects in Earth's orbit, providing data that underpins Britain's space monitoring efforts.
Tech Xplore / Heat treatment improves strength-ductility balance of 3D-printed aluminum bronze for electronic components
Researchers from Skoltech—a VEB.RF group institution—and their colleagues from State Marine Technical University and others have found a way to improve the balance between the mechanical strength and ductility of 3D-printed ...
Medical Xpress / Avoiding three things during middle age is linked to 13 more years without dementia
Having normal blood pressure, no diabetes and not smoking between ages 45 and 65 is associated with nearly 13 additional years of dementia-free life, on average, a new study shows. Led by NYU Langone Health researchers, the ...
Phys.org / How the brain helps protect fertility from heat-induced damage
As global temperatures continue to rise, scientists are racing to understand why heat so profoundly threatens fertility across the animal kingdom. A new study from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and collaborators has ...
Medical Xpress / Study shows extreme heat keeps older adults closer to home
A Stanford Medicine app found that older adults' daily travel range shrank as temperatures rose, potentially limiting social, physical and community activities.
Medical Xpress / Two women with the same pregnancy complication may face very different risks of premature cardiovascular death
Previous research has shown that women who experience complications during pregnancy face roughly twice the risk of dying prematurely from cardiovascular disease.
Medical Xpress / The human side of robotic surgery: Tracking surgeons' stress in the operating room
Robot-assisted surgery (RAS) is one of the most advanced tools in modern medicine. These systems give surgeons extreme precision, allowing procedures to be performed through small incisions that minimize both pain and recovery ...
Tech Xplore / Meta chases OpenAI, Anthropic with new AI coding app
Meta entered the race for automated coding tools Wednesday when it announced a new app for developers of artificial intelligence products, competing with other major AI labs for customers and revenue.
Medical Xpress / How age shapes treatment decisions in chronic coronary disease
For many older adults with heart disease, age is a significant factor in treatment decisions. But a new Yale–led study published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society suggests that overall health, function and ...
Phys.org / How molecular tethers and asynchronous replication drive parasite proliferation
Malaria parasites proliferate in an unusual way. Rather than dividing into two daughter cells like human cells, they first amplify their genetic material tenfold, hundredfold or even thousandfold before simultaneously producing ...
Phys.org / Orange County residents say the American dream is slipping away
Republicans and Democrats, renters and homeowners, rich and poor—agree on at least one thing: Buying a home is harder today than it was for their parents. The latest UCI-OC Poll suggests that's just the beginning of the problem.
Phys.org / Discarded rice husks capture toxic dyes, offering a reusable water filter
Rice is the most-eaten food on the planet, and its discarded outer husk results in some 300 billion pounds of waste per year. FIU chemistry researcher Islam Ibrahim Hussein says the inedible castoffs could be the key to cleaner ...
