Particle-wave duality is one of the most mysterious facets of quantum physics. It states that every quantum object has properties of both a wave and…
As technology moves forward, things get smaller, faster, and now possibly transparent. A team of scientists has developed transparent, flexible memory chips that may one…
In China, during the Chinese Great Leap Forward famine, the male-to-female birth ratios fell significantly. This implies that whenever food is in short supply, women…
Borrowing design ideas from a toy, scientists at MIT and Harvard have developed a new type of engineered capsule, dubbed “buckliball.” This one-piece silicone sphere…
It seems that allergic diseases have reached an almost pandemic level. That’s what a new study states in the journal Nature Medicine. Allergies are caused…
To further understand magnetism and superconductivity, scientists examined the “spin states” and responses of two-dimensional lattices to extreme pressures, finding strong magnetic and lattice-structure coupling….
It turns out that infants might not be using rational thinking as a reason for selective imitation. A new study suggests that observed differences in…
Astrophysicists knew the pulses emitted from the Crab Nebula were powerful, but what they found was 50 to 100 times higher than theorists thought possible….
A newly published study describes the findings of a black hole located 12 million light-years away in galaxy Centaurus A. Although black holes are believed…
New research shows that climate change may have a negative effect on birds. A new study looked at 59 different North American species of birds…
It’s hard to imagine planets that zip around at 30 million mph, but it was only a few years ago that astronomers found a “flying…
While conducting a study on liver disease in children, researchers from the Yale School of Medicine found that a common genetic variant was associated with…
The Great Barrier Reef is under attack by a disease and new data shows that the Black Band Disease can migrate at a rate fast…
Starfruit is lending its shape to newly synthesized gold nanorods, whose particles have been found to return signals 25 times stronger than similar nanorods with…
Researchers now have a better understanding of how dendritic cells address specific types of infections. By using a protein called NOD2, the scientists were able…
A newly published report documents the first full 3-D images of B12 interacting with other molecules during the reaction known as methyltransfer. This reaction is…
NASA scientists successfully completed the second of six planned trajectory correction maneuvers and confirmed the health of science instruments onboard Curiosity this week. The Mars…
