When your laptop or smartphone heats up, it's due to energy that's lost in translation. The same goes for power lines that transmit electricity between cities. In fact, around 10 percent of the generated energy is lost in the transmission of electricity. That…

Researchers assess 81 years of public records and over 4,700 maize hybrid varieties.

MIT physicists captured the first images that directly show the pairing of fermions. The snapshots of particles pairing up in a cloud of atoms can provide clues to how electrons pair up in a superconducting material.

Birds have a benefit on production for some crops by controlling pests.

Objective To determine how distinct combinations of resistance training prescription (RTx) variables (load, sets and frequency) affect muscle strength and hypertrophy. Data sources MEDLINE, Embase, Emcare, SPORTDiscus, CINAHL, and Web of Science were searche…

New research, in the wake of the gravitational wave discoveries, sheds light on the environments that could lead to black hole merger events. The work is presented this week at the 2023 National Astronomy Meeting by Ph.D. student at the University of Oxford, …

INDIANA - Warning - solar activity could cause geomagnetic storms on Friday strong enough to trigger disruptions to GPS, communications satellites, and some military radios. “Geomagnetic storms can impact infrastructure in near-Earth orbit and on the surface,…

Seeing the Milky Way through the lens of neutrino particles.

A study of 40 tardigrade species and their ancestors suggests that ancestral tardigrades were clawed and worm-like.

The brain and the digestive tract are in constant communication, relaying signals that help to control feeding and other behaviors. This extensive communication network also influences our mental state and has been implicated in many neurological dis

Under certain conditions — usually exceedingly cold ones — some materials shift their structure to unlock new, superconducting behavior. This structural shift is known as a “nematic transition,” and physicists suspect that it offers a new way to driv

The July full moon was the first of four straight 'supermoons.'

"Parasite Street Science" is a recent public engagement project by Dr Nicola Veitch and a team of scientists of the University of Glasgow that uses exciting street theatre performances to educate and entertain audiences in the UK and Malawi on the subject of …

Physicists have been riveted by systems composed of materials only one or a few layers of atoms thick. When a few sheets of these two-dimensional materials are stacked together, a geometric pattern called a moiré pattern can be formed. In these so-ca

The dust reservoirs observed in two type IIP supernovae, SN 2004et and SN 2017eaw, is radiatively heated to 100-150 K by ongoing shock interaction with the circumstellar medium.

An interdisciplinary team at the Advanced Quantum Testbed (AQT) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of California, Berkeley's Quantum Nanoelectronics Laboratory (QNL) achieved a technical breakthrough using qutrits—three…

Since the launch of the first Starlink spacecraft in 2019, the SpaceX satellites have been forced to move over 50,000 times to prevent collisions.

Launching at 7 p.m. local time (22:00 UTC), the final Ariane V lifted off on its 117th mission since its debut in June of 1996.

After undocking from the ISS on June 29th, SpaceX's Cargo Dragon capsule splashed down off of the coast of Jacksonville, FL on June 30th.

Turns out it’s not as easy as 0, 1, 1, 2, 3.

Starlink satellites can disturb observation even of those telescopes protected by radio-quiet zones.

The test was meant to usher in the return of the medium-lift launch vehicle following a failed launch in December 2022.

We could get to see moons like Jupiter’s form, or directly study water clouds in an exoplanet’s atmosphere for the first time.
