At the end of its life, a red supergiant star explodes in a hydrogen-rich supernova. By comparing observation results to simulation models, an international research team found that in many cases this..
Satellites are more likely to be at risk from high-speed solar wind than a major geomagnetic storm according to a new study.
An atom gives off energy and causes many other atoms in its vicinity to emit light as well. This phenomenon is called 'superradiance'. For the first time, this phenomenon has now bean measur..
Researchers have successfully fabricated a lithium trivanadate (LVO) cathode thick film on a garnet-type oxide solid electrolyte using the aerosol deposition method. The LVO cathode thick-film fabrica..
Researchers have developed an efficient synthetic biology toolbox for industry and research organizations. This toolbox enables, in an unprecedented way, engineering of a diverse range of yeasts and f..
Researchers performed a microdialysis study on mice to determine mechanisms underlying the inflammatory response in the brain associated with fever that might be used to develop new strategies for tre..
Blood vessel formation relies on the ability of vascular cells to move while remaining firmly connected to each other. This enables the vessels to grow and sprout without leaking any blood. Scientists..
Scientists have engineered tiny carbon-capturing engines from blue-green algae into plants, in a breakthrough that promises to help boost the yields of important food crops such as wheat, cowpeas and ..
Permafrost soils store large quantities of frozen carbon and play an important role in regulating Earth's climate. Researchers now show that river greenhouse gas emissions rise high in areas wher..
The world's first clinical trial (SURGUVANT) evaluating anti-inflammatory use at the time of surgery in colon cancer patients to improve their cancer outcome.
