Tech Xplore / New motor drive design reduces heat, wear in high-power systems
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory's (ORNL) National Transportation Research Center have developed a novel electric motor drive design that meets the performance demands of aircraft, ...
Medical Xpress / What research reveals about transmasculine pregnancy
A recent review of published research provides some evidence that a small but noteworthy minority of transmasculine people (trans, nonbinary, and other gender-expansive people who were assigned female at birth) have pregnancies ...
Medical Xpress / Investigational drug that targets DNA damage help could treat Alzheimer's disease
Accumulation of DNA damage in the brain's neurons may contribute to the development of Alzheimer's disease. New research in FEBS Open Bio demonstrates the therapeutic potential of a drug that targets this process.
Phys.org / How climate change affects interactions between owls and their prey
A study published in Ecography has assessed how climate change may be destabilizing interactions between predators and prey in the wild—specifically, how owl–prey interactions have responded to environmental variability and ...
Phys.org / Researchers break a fundamental rule to create a new concept: Heat that can be directed and 'programmed'
Normally, a material absorbs and emits heat in a linked way: A surface that absorbs heat well at a certain wavelength and direction will also emit heat in the same way. This fundamental relationship, known as reciprocity, ...
Phys.org / Study unveils new genetic screen for understanding human development
A new genetic screening method allows researchers to efficiently modulate individual genes across entire tissues and provides new insights into human development. The research, published in eLife, is described as a landmark ...
Phys.org / New ultrathin lens focuses light into an optical needle
Researchers have created a special flat lens that shapes light into an optical needle—a thin beam that stays tightly focused over a long distance. Combining this lens, which is about 7 microns thick, with optical coherence ...
Phys.org / South Pole Telescope analysis releases new catalog of more than 7,000 galaxy clusters
Researchers working with data from the South Pole Telescope have released a major catalog of galaxy clusters, giving scientists a powerful new tool for studying how the universe grew and changed over billions of years. The ...
Phys.org / Researchers develop AI tool that finds the equations behind complex systems
Clarkson University researchers have developed an artificial intelligence tool that can uncover the mathematical equations governing complex and chaotic systems directly from data. The technology, called KANDy—short for Kolmogorov-Arnold ...
Medical Xpress / Overall U.S. death rate declined from 2024 to 2025, report says
In 2025, the overall U.S. death rate was down 4.6% from 2024, according to a July Vital Statistics Rapid Release report, a publication of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Phys.org / Galaxy mergers aren't always obvious
The galaxy Centaurus A is about 11 million light-years away and is the fifth-brightest galaxy in the sky. Because it's so bright, it's been studied extensively by amateur and professional astronomers alike. Also called NGC ...
Phys.org / Why Europe's trees are dying
In Europe, trees are increasingly dying prematurely. A new study by the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL) on French forests now shows that it is not only drought but also unusually warm ...
