It’s 7 billion years ago, and the Universe’s heyday of star formation is beginning to slow. What might our Milky Way Galaxy have looked like at that...
In a paper published in the journal Nature Geoscience, scientists offer a new explanation for a string of severe environmental crises, called oceanic anoxic...
Jupiter’s moon Ganymede has an ancient impact structure called a furrow system. This system is the largest impact structure in the outer Solar System,...
The so-called i-motifs are knot-like DNA structures formed in the nuclei of human cells and believed to provide critical genomic regulation. In new research,...
Gold nuggets occur predominantly in quartz veins, and the current paradigm posits that gold precipitates from hot water and carbon dioxide-rich fluids...
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and the Subaru Telescope, astronomers have discovered a pair of merging gas-rich galaxies...
A team of researchers from Finland and Norway has identified two potential antivirulence compounds for enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) infections...

First hypothesized more than 60 years ago, the ambipolar electric field is a key driver of the polar wind, a steady outflow of charged particles into space...
Typically, plants grow in crowded environments, where neighboring plants shade each other while competing for light. The presence of neighbors varies over...
The impact of inter-group conflict on population dynamics has long been debated, especially for prehistoric and non-state societies. In their work, scientists...
DNA methylation is a broadly observed epigenetic modification in living systems, playing diverse functions in transcriptional regulation, transposable...
Astrophysicists with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration have conducted test observations achieving the highest resolution ever obtained from...
