Phys.org / Nova V612 Scuti's light curve becomes audio, revealing how stellar shocks evolved
Researchers in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at Texas Tech University recently used audio to represent the spectacular explosion of a star in deep space while also delving into the data to better understand how the ...
Phys.org / Bridging the gap between people and nature: The need for biocultural approaches to restoration
Worldwide landscapes are changing at an unprecedented pace. Forests are cleared, wetlands drained, and ecosystems degraded by decades of human activity and unsustainable extraction.
Medical Xpress / More children are getting diseases like celiac disease, diabetes and Crohn's in Norway
More children are getting diseases such as celiac disease, type 1 diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) than before, research shows. IBD is a term for conditions like ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. These ...
Phys.org / Giant exoplanet may hold a magnetic grip on its host star
Within their planetary systems, stars are continuously shaping their orbiting planets through gravity, radiation and magnetic forces. So far, this relationship has appeared to be a one-way street.
Tech Xplore / A simple way to tune wave energy devices for higher efficiency
Wave energy has long been seen as a promising source of clean electricity. The ocean is always moving, and that motion carries a huge amount of energy. But many wave energy devices have one important limitation: They do not ...
Phys.org / Switching spin states in manganese ions with light opens new path for molecular memory
Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have developed a new way to use molecules as tiny data storage devices with a new manganese-based material. Until now, this was possible only with iron-containing molecular ...
Phys.org / Uncovering the trigger behind slow earthquakes
New research led by the University of New England's Dr. Timothy Chapman has uncovered the trigger behind slow earthquakes, providing valuable answers for those living in disaster-prone areas. The research has been published ...
Medical Xpress / Diabetes linked to worse long COVID outcomes
People with diabetes who have had COVID-19 tend to recover more slowly, experience more long COVID complications, have a poorer quality of life, and require closer and more prolonged monitoring by medical teams. This was ...
Tech Xplore / Shape-shifting surface morphs in real time for next-generation human-machine interaction
A team of engineers at Rice University and Kyung Hee University has developed a soft, shape-shifting mechanical surface that can respond to touch, sense its own movements and visually communicate changes in real time—an advance ...
Tech Xplore / A diving suit for cyborg cockroaches could enhance search-and-rescue operations
Scientists from NTU Singapore and Waseda University have developed a flexible "diving suit" for cyborg cockroaches, enabling the insects to survive and move underwater and in low-oxygen environments for up to three hours. ...
Phys.org / Oil price shocks have exposed car‑dependent cities. Here's what governments can do
The recent Israeli–United States war with Iran sent oil prices soaring worldwide, and Canada was no exception. In some regions, gasoline passed $2 per liter.
Medical Xpress / Millions of New Yorkers consume cannabis; far fewer understand details, such as content and dosage
In 2023, about 2 million adults in New York state reported consuming some form of cannabis. However, only a small portion has a full understanding of cannabis product labeling, which includes ingredients, dosages and whether ...
