| Scaling laws in enzymes may help predict life ‘as we don’t know it' Posted: 28 Feb 2022 01:16 PM PST A team of researchers is developing tools to predict the features of life as we don't know it. |
| Physicists bring a once-theoretical effect of quantum matter into observable reality Posted: 28 Feb 2022 12:06 PM PST Physicists have experimentally observed a quirky behavior of the quantum world: a 'quantum boomerang' effect that occurs when particles in a disordered system are kicked out of their locations. Instead of landing elsewhere as one might expect, they turn around and come back to where they started and stop there. |
| Elephant seal’s map sense tells them when to head ‘home’ Posted: 28 Feb 2022 08:43 AM PST Each year, pregnant female elephant seals take an approximately 240-day trek over 10,000 kilometers across the Eastern North Pacific Ocean before returning to their breeding beaches to give birth within five days of their arrival. Now, a study finds that this impressive navigation ability depends on an internal map sense, which functions much like a built-in GPS. |
