Phys.org / Flat Fermi surface in altermagnets enables quantum limit spin currents
The key feature of spintronic devices is their ability to use spin currents to transfer momentum, enabling low-energy, high-speed storage and logical signal control. These devices are usually manipulated by electric currents ...
Phys.org / Key proteins reveal how evolution of locomotion shapes bone remodeling processes
An international collaboration study reveals how evolution and locomotion patterns, such as bipedalism, shaped bone structures through proteins present in the bone matrix. The findings of the study, led by researchers from ...
Phys.org / UK's worst-case climate risks laid bare for lawmakers
British policymakers planning for climate change now have detailed worst-case scenarios at their disposal, filling a gap that left the UK unprepared for extreme outcomes.
Phys.org / Global peatlands revealed as critical frontier in fight against climate change
Global peatlands—huge expanses of partially decayed vegetation—store more carbon than is naturally present in the atmosphere but are under pressure from drainage-based agriculture. New research from Murdoch University ...
Medical Xpress / Aspartame sweetener cuts fat, but may harm heart and brain—even at low doses
A study by CIC biomaGUNE and Biogipuzkoa HRI conducted on mice has found that the prolonged intake of sweeteners may exert harmful effects on the function of various organs. Artificial sweeteners are widely used to reduce ...
Phys.org / A delicate Antarctic balance with global climate implications
New findings about ocean processes in the Antarctic show melting ice shelves and changes to sea ice could have catastrophic implications for the global climate.
Phys.org / Universities' work towards Indigenous identity policies signals difficult conversations
In recent years, members of the Canadian public have witnessed the misrepresentation of Indigenous identities.
Medical Xpress / How swearing makes you stronger
Letting out a swear word in a moment of frustration can feel good. Now, research suggests that it can be good for you, too: Swearing can boost people's physical performance by helping them overcome their inhibitions and push ...
Phys.org / Scientists at the American Museum of Natural History discovered more than 70 new species in 2025
From fruit flies that bite to a tiny mouse opossum and a feathered dinosaur preserved with the remains of its last meal, more than 70 new species were described this year by researchers at the American Museum of Natural History.
Phys.org / Bromeliads promote plant diversity in the forest by enriching the soil with nutrients
Anyone seeing a white jacaranda (Jacaranda puberula), also known as caroba, blooming in the sandbank forest might assume that the leafy tree could not survive in such sandy soil. They would be right. This type of Atlantic ...
Medical Xpress / Guideline-concordant care rate in seniors is approximately 60% after positive lung cancer screen
Among persons with a first positive lung cancer screening result at age 65 years or older, the rate of guideline-concordant care is 59.7% overall, according to a study published online Dec. 16 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
Phys.org / Spray-on antibacterial coating offers new protection for plants against disease and drought
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a spray-on polymer coating that could help plants resist harmful bacterial infections and survive drought. The advance, published in ACS Materials Letters, ...
