| New Hubble data suggests there is an ingredient missing from current dark matter theories Posted: 10 Sep 2020 12:03 PM PDT Recent observations have found that something may be missing from the theories of how dark matter behaves. This missing ingredient may explain why researchers have uncovered an unexpected discrepancy between observations of the dark matter concentrations in a sample of massive galaxy clusters and theoretical computer simulations of how dark matter should be distributed in clusters. |
| Odors produced by soil microbes attract red fire ants to safer nest sites Posted: 10 Sep 2020 12:03 PM PDT Newly mated queens of the red fire ant select nest sites with a relatively low pathogen risk by detecting odors produced by soil bacteria that inhibit the growth of ant-infecting fungi, according to a new study. |
| Jupiter's moons could be warming each other Posted: 10 Sep 2020 12:02 PM PDT The gravitational push and pull by Jupiter's moons could account for more warming than the gas giant Jupiter alone. |
| Posted: 10 Sep 2020 10:04 AM PDT Astronomers have discovered a supernova that could help uncover the origins of the group of supernovae this star belongs to. |
| Experiments reveal why human-like robots elicit uncanny feelings Posted: 10 Sep 2020 08:08 AM PDT Experiments reveal a dynamic process that leads to the uncanny valley, with implications for both the design of robots and for understanding how we perceive one another as humans. |
| Sampling the gut microbiome with an ingestible pill Posted: 09 Sep 2020 08:48 AM PDT Gut microbes affect human health, but there is still much to learn, in part because they're not easy to collect. But researchers now report that they have developed an ingestible capsule that in rat studies captured bacteria and other biological samples while passing through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. |
