| Smart windows that self-illuminate on rainy days Posted: 29 May 2020 12:07 PM PDT A research team develops self-powering, color-changing humidity sensors. Applicable to various fields including smart windows, health care and safety management. |
| The most common organism in the oceans harbors a virus in its DNA Posted: 29 May 2020 12:06 PM PDT The most common organism in the world's oceans -- and possibly the whole planet -- harbors a virus in its DNA. This virus may have helped it survive and outcompete other organisms. |
| New gut-brain link: How gut mucus could help treat brain disorders Posted: 29 May 2020 06:31 AM PDT Gut bacterial imbalance is linked with many neurological disorders. Now researchers have identified a common thread: changes in gut mucus. It's a new gut-brain connection that opens fresh paths for scientists searching for ways to treat brain disorders by targeting our 'second brain' -- the gut. |
| New research reveals cannabis and frankincense at the Judahite shrine of biblical Arad Posted: 29 May 2020 06:31 AM PDT Analysis of the material on two Iron Age altars discovered at the entrance to the 'holy of holies' of a shrine at Tel Arad in the Beer-sheba Valley, Israel, were found to contain cannabis and frankincense, according to new article. |
| Active material created out of microscopic spinning particles Posted: 29 May 2020 06:31 AM PDT Researchers have created a new kind of self-healing active material out of 'microspinners,' which self-assemble under a magnetic field to form a lattice. |
| Cosmic bursts unveil universe's missing matter Posted: 27 May 2020 10:31 AM PDT Astronomers have used mysterious fast radio bursts to solve a decades-old mystery of 'missing matter', long predicted to exist in the Universe but never detected -- until now. The researchers have now found all of the missing 'normal' matter in the vast space between stars and galaxies. |
| Astronomers confirm existence of two giant newborn planets in PDS 70 system Posted: 18 May 2020 11:48 AM PDT New direct images captured with W. M. Keck Observatory's upgraded adaptive optics system lead to the first independent confirmation of two protoplanets orbiting the star PDS 70. |
| Mystery of lava-like flows on Mars solved Posted: 18 May 2020 08:16 AM PDT The mystery of some lava-like flows on Mars has been solved by scientists who say they are caused not by lava but by mud. There are tens of thousands of these landforms on the Martian surface, often situated where there are massive channels scoured into the surface by ancient liquids flowing downstream. Scientists performed experiments at low pressure and at extremely cold temperatures (-20°C) to recreate the Martian environment. |
