Super-cooling radioactive atoms could produce a laser-like neutrino beam, according to a duo of physicists from MIT and the University of Texas at Arlington....
Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) bean fermentation is a spontaneous process involving interactions between various factors that contribute to the final flavors...
White dwarfs are the dense cores left behind when stars exhaust their fuel and collapse. They are Earth-sized stellar embers weighing typically half as...
New research led by University of California, Riverside’s Professor Meng Chen shows that plants rely on multiple heat-sensing systems and that sugar...
During periods known as Snowball Earth, between 720 and 635 million years ago, early eukaryotes — complex cellular lifeforms that eventually evolved...
In their new paper, Los Alamos National Laboratory planetary scientist Nina Lanza and colleagues looked at what would be needed to make the surface environment...
Using a novel method of geographical analysis, paleontologists inferred how archosauromorphs dispersed following one of the most impactful climate events...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected water, carbon monoxide, and silicon monoxide in the dayside atmosphere of WASP-121b...
Recognizable from the starring role in the film ‘Finding Nemo,’ the clown anemonefish (Amphiprion percula) also shrink in order to avoid social conflict,...
Observations of large valley networks on today’s Mars suggest formation by flowing water. However, most climate models cannot sustain temperatures above...
The quantum superposition principle allows us to prepare a system in a superposition of two arbitrary states. The paradigmatic example is the superposition...
Heat from our Sun drives atmospheric temperature changes on Earth, which in turn can affect things like rock properties and underground water movement,...
White dwarfs may present amenable environments for life on planets formed within or migrated to their habitable zones, generating warmer surface environments...
A team of planetary researchers led by Caltech has determined the chemical mechanisms by which the ancient Mars was able to sustain enough warmth in its...
The end-Triassic extinction along with the end-Permian and end-Cretaceous events are the most severe mass extinctions in the past 270 million years. The...
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation, which is characterized by irregular alternations between anomalously warm (El Niño) and cold (La Niña) conditions,...
The end-Permian mass extinction, which occurred about 252 million years ago, was the most severe extinction event in the past 540 million years, eliminating...
Astronomers using Webb’s MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument) have imaged Epsilon Indi Ab, a gas giant several times the mass of Jupiter located around 12...
