Astrophysicists have discovered large magnetic toroids in the Milky Way’s halo, which impact cosmic ray propagation and the physics of interstellar space. Their research, based…
The flowering plant tree of life, much like our own family tree, allows us to understand how different species are related to each other. The…
Research indicates that permafrost-collapsed areas emit significantly more CO2 in response to climate warming than in non-collapsed areas, with implications for global carbon cycle dynamics….
Scientists have observed so-called ‘roaming’ chemical reactions, those that at certain points move away from the lowest minimum energy ‘path of least resistance,’ in highly…
A research group headed by Professor Chen Chilai from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has significantly enhanced the…
Traditional lithium-ion batteries, while offering high energy density, have compromised safety because they use flammable organic electrolytes. Aqueous batteries use water as the solvent for…

Scientists have introduced a groundbreaking form of quantum entanglement known as frequency-domain photon number-path entanglement. This leap in quantum physics involves an innovative tool called…
Mammaliaforms encompass both living and extinct species that share a close relationship with mammals. Research on mammaliaforms aids scientists in deciphering the evolutionary developments responsible…
Black holes are fascinating cosmic entities characterized by gravitational pulls so intense that not even light can escape once it crosses into their event horizons….
In 2023, amid rising global concerns about the warmest year on record and record-high ocean temperatures, attention turned to the Antarctic sea ice. Following a…
Soil carbon typically refers to the organic component, termed soil organic carbon (SOC). However, there is also an inorganic component, referred to as soil inorganic…
The BESIII collaboration’s recent discovery of an anomalous decay pattern points to the possible existence of a proton-antiproton bound state, supported by evidence from historical…
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has discovered a giant ultra-high-energy gamma-ray bubble structure in the Cygnus star-forming region, which is the first…
Nanosheets made from transition metal tellurides have demonstrated significant potential for basic research and applications in various fields, yet until recently, their large-scale production has…
Thanks to a new design contributed by a research team led by Prof. Zhao Peng from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of Chinese Academy…
