| Making musical performances safer in the era of COVID-19 Posted: 15 Sep 2021 10:51 AM PDT Researchers have studied aerosol production from playing wind instruments, singing and acting, allowing them to develop recommendations to minimize COVID transmission. |
| Have we detected dark energy? Scientists say it’s a possibility Posted: 15 Sep 2021 10:51 AM PDT Dark energy, the mysterious force that causes the universe to accelerate, may have been responsible for unexpected results from the XENON1T experiment, deep below Italy's Apennine Mountains. |
| Planets form in organic soups with different ingredients Posted: 15 Sep 2021 08:10 AM PDT Astronomers have mapped out the chemicals inside of planetary nurseries in extraordinary detail. The newly unveiled maps reveal the locations of dozens of molecules within five protoplanetary disks -- regions of dust and gas where planets form around young stars. |
| Astronomers solve 900-year-old cosmic mystery surrounding Chinese supernova of 1181AD Posted: 15 Sep 2021 06:54 AM PDT A 900-year-old cosmic mystery surrounding the origins of a famous supernova first spotted over China in 1181AD has finally been solved, according to an international team of astronomers. New research says that a faint, fast expanding cloud (or nebula), called Pa30, surrounding one of the hottest stars in the Milky Way, known as Parker's Star, fits the profile, location and age of the historic supernova. |
| Concentration of microparticles in lakes reflect nearby human activity and land use Posted: 14 Sep 2021 12:25 PM PDT A new study suggests that microparticle concentrations in lakes are higher than previously reported, and that human activity and surrounding land use may be a strong predictor of microplastics and anthropogenic fiber pollution. |
| Novel technology makes studying gene function easier, faster and more efficient Posted: 14 Sep 2021 09:50 AM PDT Researchers have developed a drug-based genetic platform that enables scientists to track genetic manipulations in the laboratory fruit fly without having to screen thousands of individual flies. |
| Solar cells with 30-year lifetimes for power-generating windows Posted: 14 Sep 2021 08:12 AM PDT A new transparency-friendly solar cell design could marry high efficiencies with 30-year estimated lifetimes, new research has shown. It may pave the way for windows that also provide solar power. |
| Engineers create 3D-printed objects that sense how a user is interacting with them Posted: 14 Sep 2021 08:12 AM PDT Researchers found a way to integrate sensing capabilities into 3D printable structures made of repetitive cells, enabling designers to rapidly prototype interactive input devices. |
| Scientists can now assemble entire genomes on their personal computers in minutes Posted: 14 Sep 2021 08:12 AM PDT Scientists have developed a technique for reconstructing whole genomes, including the human genome, on a personal computer. This technique is about a hundred times faster than current state-of-the-art approaches and uses one-fifth the resources. The study allows for a more compact representation of genome data inspired by the way in which words, rather than letters, offer condensed building blocks for language models. |
| Light does the twist for quantum computing Posted: 14 Sep 2021 08:03 AM PDT Scientists have generated circularly polarized light and controlled its direction without using clunky magnets or very low temperatures. The findings show promise for the development of materials and device methods that can be used in optical quantum information processing. |
| Just by changing its shape, scientists show they can alter material properties Posted: 13 Sep 2021 07:01 PM PDT Scientists have observed that when the shape of a thin film of metal oxide known as titania is confined at the mesoscale, its conductivity increases. This finding demonstrates that nanoscale confinement is a way to control quantum effects. |
| Star attraction: Magnetism generated by star-like arrangement of molecules Posted: 13 Sep 2021 10:57 AM PDT A new study demonstrating the emergence of localized magnetism due to a 2D nanomaterial's unique, star-like atomic-scale structure has potential for applications in next-generation electronics based on organic nanomaterials, where tuning of electronic interactions can lead to a vast range of new electronic and magnetic phases. |
| A more efficient way to find a more efficient battery Posted: 09 Sep 2021 09:42 AM PDT Research has the potential to speed up development of high-capacity storage batteries while spending less time in a lab. |
