Phys.org / Bright quantum light emission achieved at room temperature in 2D semiconductors
A joint research team led by Professor Park Kyoung-Duck and Associate Director Suh Yung Doug of the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has succeeded in realizing a high-efficiency ...
Phys.org / Saturday Citations: Neuroinflammaging treatment stuns; a hidden magma lake; decoding little red dots
This week in science news: Researchers are calling to exploit sewage waste and manure to break U.S. synthetic fertilizer dependence. Wasps have begun disrupting the 10-million-year mutualism of ants and plants. And scientists ...
Phys.org / Wildfires used to 'go to sleep' at night. Climate change is turning them into prime burning hours
Burning time for North American wildfires is going into overtime. Flames are lasting later into the night and starting earlier in the morning because human-caused climate change is extending the hotter and drier conditions ...
Phys.org / Taiwan landslide's hidden motion comes into focus as fiber optics track deep slip
Placed within a borehole drilled deep through the layers of a landslide, a fiber optic cable captured tiny, periodic stick-slip events that offer a unique glimpse at the complex movements within the landslide's shear zone.
Phys.org / A student-led experiment sets new limits in the search for axions
In the era of precision cosmology, research often means big science: large observatories, highly complex instruments, international collaborations and substantial funding. Yet even in such an advanced field, progress is still ...
Phys.org / Quantum-informed AI improves long-term turbulence forecasts while using far less memory
An AI model informed by calculations from a quantum computer can better predict the behavior of a complex physical system over the long term than current best models that use only conventional computers, according to a new ...
Phys.org / The Colorado River disappeared from the geological record for 5 million years: Scientists now know where it went
Geologists have solved the mystery of the disappearance from the geological record, millions of years ago, of one of North America's most important waterways: the Colorado River. A paper published in Science shows that the ...
Phys.org / DNA cracks nutmeg's hidden past, revealing a South Moluccas origin and a prehuman journey north
A sprinkle of nutmeg powder on baked goodies or mashed potatoes can immediately lift the flavor with its warm and sweet aroma. Even though it is used globally, not much is known about the true origins of the nutmeg spice ...
Phys.org / First archaeological case of cleft lip identified in China reveals inclusive care in Qing dynasty community
Orofacial clefts (OC; cleft lips and/or palates) require intense care immediately after birth and can lead to lifelong difficulties with eating and speaking, leading to social marginalization, stigmatization, and exclusion. ...
Phys.org / Indonesia's fire crisis comes into focus as high-resolution satellite maps expose 5.62 million hectares affected
Indonesia experiences massive forest fires as the dry season approaches. They are a major environmental challenge because they damage forests and other land, endanger lives, and disrupt local economies. Using sharp, high-resolution ...
Phys.org / Antioxidant glutathione discovered to play a key role in proper protein folding
In the past several years, Rockefeller University's Kivanç Birsoy and his team in the Laboratory of Metabolic Regulation and Genetics have revealed remarkable details about the antioxidant glutathione, which plays many essential ...
Phys.org / ALMA and JWST investigate giant disk galaxy's formation and evolution
European astronomers have used the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) and the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe a recently discovered giant disk galaxy known as ADF22.1. Results of the new observations, published ...
