An international research team has developed a computer programme that can simulate the transport of cosmic rays through space. The researchers hope it will help them solve the mystery of the sources of cosmic rays.

Mathematical analysis could inform coral conservation efforts

A recent study published in the journal ACS Nano addresses this issue by presenting a universal approach for quantifying the layer numbers in two-dimensional materials utilizing red-green-blue (RGB) and RAW optical images.

Researchers at the ARC Center of Excellence for Climate Extremes have filled an important gap in climate modeling and predictions with new research out today in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres.

A new paper based on exploration by the NASA's Curiosity Mars rover—and reviewed by an astronaut while she was on the International Space Station (ISS), in what may be a first for peer-reviewed science literature—describes how dramatically different geology o…

An international team of researchers has found the genes responsible for converting yellow carotenoids in birds to red ketocarotenoids. In their paper published in the journal Cell Biology, the group describes the steps they took to reveal the genes and the p…

SpaceX will launch its Falcon 9 rocket with 54 new Starlink satellites at 7:40 am IST from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

A new study reveals how the brain chooses between pain and profit. Imagine always having to decide between activities you like doing and potential physical or emotional pain. Making these challenging decisions on a daily or weekly basis is probably nothing ne…

Foxes are wild and should be treated with caution, but fox attacks are rare. They can prey on smaller pets, though.

Sierra Space’s LIFE Habitat Completes Successful Ultimate Burst Pressure Test

Amid tough global market conditions, tech giant HCL Technologies has reportedly laid off 350 employees globally, including in India, Guatemala, and the Philippines, who were working on a Microsoft news project, media reports said.According to reports, the wor…

A mechanical engineer from the University of Houston has created a sprayable ice-shedding substance that is 100 times more powerful than existing ones.

Sharks are some of the most ecologically important and most threatened animals on Earth. Recent reports show that up to one-third of all known species of sharks and their relatives, rays, are threatened with extinction. Unsustainable overfishing is the bigges…

Using the AstroSat spacecraft, Indian astronomers have investigated an open cluster known as NGC 2506. The study identified more than 2,000 member stars of this cluster and provided more insights into its properties. The findings were published in Monthly Not…

Leaving the comfort and safety of home to explore the world is a difficult decision. However, in a tiny coral reef fish called a neon goby, dads help their offspring take the plunge by pushing them out the door when the time is just right.

In a statement last week, China's Communist Party claimed Chinese scientists had discovered a new mineral on the Moon. Upon finding a lunar mineral, China would be the third country to do so.

Dr. Li Shasha and Dr. Feng Haicheng from the Yunnan Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and their collaborators found evidence for the kinematic evolution of the broad-line region of active galactic nuclei.

Astronomers have found a surprisingly large number of half rock, half water planets orbiting M-dwarf, or red dwarf, stars throughout our Milky Way galaxy.

The Dawn mission used state-of-the-art ion thrusters to change orbits between bodies in visits to Vesta and Ceres, two Solar System time capsules.

Corals have been destroyed by previous marine heat waves, and if the current rate of climate change is maintained, the future is gloomy for tropical reefs.

The diamonds’ unusual crystal structure may make them harder than ordinary diamonds.

Scientists at EPFL have developed an implantation technique that allows unprecedented optical access to the "spinal cord" of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. This work can potentially lead to breakthroughs in the fields of neuroscience, artificial inte…
