Phys.org / Neutral radicals unlock porous organic semiconductors without chemical doping
Researchers at the Center for Research in Biological Chemistry and Molecular Materials (CiQUS) at the Universidade de Santiago de Compostela (USC) have developed a new strategy for producing covalent organic frameworks (COFs) ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists target gum disease with bacteriophage virus
Scientists have shown that a naturally occurring virus can dismantle complex bacterial communities responsible for severe gum disease, offering a potential alternative to traditional antibiotics. In the first study to demonstrate ...
Phys.org / How prehistoric coastal flooding shaped the Northern Adriatic
Researchers have shown how dramatic sea-level rise over a 5,000-year period profoundly changed the coasts of northern Italy, Slovenia and northern Croatia. Successive shaping and reshaping of coastal features influenced the ...
Phys.org / Bizarre galactic radio source remains active for two decades with no detectable X-rays
Astronomers have identified a peculiar radio transient in the Milky Way that has remained active for more than two decades, defying the behavior expected of known classes of galactic radio sources. The paper posted to the ...
Medical Xpress / Continuous glucose monitoring reveals trade-off between glucose control and daily well-being
New research to be presented at the Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Milan, Italy, Sept. 28–Oct. 2, shows that among people living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, data from continuous ...
Medical Xpress / Newly found dendrite bottlenecks may reshape how neurons handle information
Neurons receive thousands of signals via tree-like extensions called dendrites. Until now, these dendrites were thought to be relatively smooth cables that conduct electrical signals to the cell body. An international research ...
Phys.org / Physicists help uncover 'spooky' quantum effect in the Large Hadron Collider
Physicists at the University of Oxford have helped confirm that one of the strangest phenomena in physics—quantum entanglement—occurs even among some of the heaviest and most fleeting particles ever created. The discovery, ...
Phys.org / How the 2024 solar superstorm drained Earth's radiation belt
In May 2024, Earth experienced its most intense geomagnetic storm since the Halloween storms of 2003. This "superstorm" filled night skies in many parts of the world with colorful aurorae, and it disrupted some infrastructure, ...
Phys.org / Getting photons into shape for reliable quantum communication
The vast majority of modern quantum technologies—from quantum cryptography to the quantum internet to the quantum computer—rely on one essential element: the transmission of photons. Two qubits (two atoms, for example) exchange ...
Phys.org / Mapping charge-carrier dynamics to guide more efficient organic solar cells
A Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) research team led by professors Taeyeon Kim and Doo-Hyun Ko of the Department of Chemistry recently published a comprehensive review titled "Carrier Dynamics in Nonfullerene Acceptor Organic ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers say parents should combine words with gestures to help their children learn
As children return to school, new research from the University of Iowa shows how parents can help their kids learn while literally being on the same wavelength.
Medical Xpress / Time-restricted eating provides modest weight loss benefits for adults with obesity and prediabetes
A Johns Hopkins Medicine study reports evidence that time-restricted eating (TRE)—a form of intermittent fasting that involves eating only during a consistent daily 8–10-hour window—can cause modest weight loss in adults ...
