| Psyche, the iron giant of asteroids, may be less iron than researchers thought Posted: 15 Feb 2022 04:51 AM PST Scientists have thought that the asteroid Psyche could be a big ball of pure iron, but new research suggests it's likely harboring a hidden rocky component. |
| Astronomers discover a new type of star covered in helium burning ashes Posted: 14 Feb 2022 03:33 PM PST Astronomers have discovered a strange new type of star covered in the by-product of helium burning. It is possible that the stars might have been formed by a rare stellar merger event. |
| Posted: 14 Feb 2022 03:33 PM PST Cutting-edge research has observed time crystals in a system that is not isolated from its ambient environment. This major achievement brings scientists one step closer to developing time crystals for use in real-world applications. |
| A microbial compound in the gut leads to anxious behaviors in mice Posted: 14 Feb 2022 09:12 AM PST A new study shows how a particular molecule, produced by gut bacteria, affects brain function and promotes anxiety-like behaviors in mice. |
| Neutrinos are lighter than 0.8 electronvolts Posted: 14 Feb 2022 08:17 AM PST New research has broken an important 'barrier' in neutrino physics which is relevant for both particle physics and cosmology. A new upper limit of 0.8 electronvolt (eV) for the mass of the neutrino has been obtained. This first push into the sub-eV mass scale of neutrinos by a model-independent laboratory method allows KATRIN to constrain the mass of these 'lightweights of the universe' with unprecedented precision. |
| Robots that can check your blood pressure Posted: 11 Feb 2022 07:27 AM PST Scientists are empowering small, humanoid-sensing robots to take a patient's blood pressure -- using only a simple touch. |
