Phys.org / Could a recently reported high-energy neutrino event be explained by an exploding primordial black hole?
The KM3NeT collaboration is a large research group involved in the operation of a neutrino telescope network in the deep Mediterranean Sea, with the aim of detecting high-energy neutrino events. These are rare and fleeting ...
Phys.org / Female meiosis in plants can be directly observed with new method
A research team at the IPK Leibniz Institute has developed a method that enables the detailed observation of female meiosis—the process by which germ cells are formed—in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The FeM-ID ...
Phys.org / Accounting move promotes equal pay for equal work
During the 60 years since pay discrimination became illegal in the United States, gender pay equity has remained stubbornly elusive. The gap between women and men increased in 2024, with women earning 80.9 cents for every ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds IGF speeds lymphatic vessel growth, hinting at new lymphedema therapy
Scientists have made a breakthrough that could lead to effective treatments for lymphedema, a painful swelling condition for which there is currently no cure. Lymphedema can be congenital or caused by an injury, but it mostly ...
Medical Xpress / Natural compound derived from ashwagandha plant could benefit lymphoma patients
A new UNC study finds that a chemical derived from ashwagandha disrupts viral and cancer processes that make B-cell lymphomas difficult to treat with standard chemotherapy. Cancer has many causes, including inherited genes, ...
Phys.org / Next-generation OLEDs rely on fine-tuned microcavities
Researchers have developed a unified theory of microcavity OLEDs, guiding the design of more efficient and sustainable devices. The work reveals a surprising trade-off: squeezing light too tightly inside OLEDs can actually ...
Phys.org / Rocket re-entry pollution measured in atmosphere for first time
When part of a SpaceX rocket re-entered Earth's atmosphere exactly a year ago, it created a spectacuglar fireball that streaked across Europe's skies, delighting stargazers and sending a team of scientists rushing toward ...
Tech Xplore / Security vulnerabilities in Tesla's Model 3 and Cybertruck reveal how connected cars can be hacked
Hackers could exploit wireless systems in Tesla's Model 3 and Cybertruck to track vehicles, disrupt communications, and interfere with network performance, according to research from Northeastern University posted to the ...
Medical Xpress / Red blood cells soak up sugar at high altitude, protecting against diabetes
Scientists have long known that people living at high altitudes, where oxygen levels are low, have lower rates of diabetes than people living closer to sea level. But the mechanism of this protection has remained a mystery. ...
Medical Xpress / High-performance ECG patch eliminates cold gel and irritating adhesives
Conventional ECG patches often require cold gels and adhesives, which can cause skin irritation and leave marks. These materials can also lose effectiveness during vigorous movement, compromising signal quality. Addressing ...
Medical Xpress / What a zinc gradient in dentin could mean for fillings and tooth health
Teeth are composites of mineral and protein, with a bulk of bony dentin that is highly porous. This structure allows teeth to be both strong and sensitive. Besides calcium and phosphate, teeth contain trace elements such ...
Phys.org / Global study finds smaller fish and shifting food webs despite stable species numbers
Species numbers alone do not fully capture how ecosystems are changing. In a global study, scientists analyzed long-term data from nearly 15,000 marine and freshwater fish communities. They found that fish food webs have ...
