Nuclear reactors may go dark, but their fuel continues producing a faint antineutrino “glow” long after shutdown. Researchers have now detected that...
A tiny superconducting engine has successfully converted heat near absolute zero into useful work, demonstrating the first cyclic quantum heat engine of...
A surprising stress-related signal may help the brain repair itself after injury. Researchers found that myelin-producing precursor cells rapidly release the stress...
Scientists have found that the AMOC may be far more vulnerable to rapid warming than to temperature alone. When warming happens slowly,...
Researchers have found a clever new way to map a part of Earth’s upper atmosphere that is notoriously difficult to observe. Using...
The adult brain may be far better at repairing itself than scientists once believed. In mice, researchers discovered a special group of...
Keratin extracted from sheep’s wool helped damaged bone regenerate in animals, producing tissue that was more organized and structurally similar to healthy...
James Webb has captured a striking new infrared view of NGC 2392, the Lion Nebula, revealing the dramatic aftermath of a dying...
Physicists have found a new way to peer inside one of matter’s most elusive quantum states: the Wigner crystal, where electrons stop...
An experimental GLP-1 pill helped people with obesity or overweight lose as much as 12.1% of their body weight in just 36...
