A buried galaxy nucleus has turned out to be a surprisingly active chemical factory, where cosmic rays may be driving the creation of key organic molecules. James Webb Space Telescope artist’s ...

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope’s final data release confirms a major cosmic discrepancy and rules out many attempted solutions.

Tiny crystal “seeds” could solve a hidden flaw in perovskite solar cells—unlocking high efficiency at larger scales.

Research on nearly 1.2 million infants shows vegan and vegetarian diets can support normal growth in the first two years of life. As more families adopt plant-based eating habits, many parents and ped ...

When myelin breaks down, white matter in the brain deteriorates, a change commonly seen with aging. At the same time, microglia, the brain’s primary immune cells, can shift from protective responders ...

Scientists have identified prematurely aged astrocytes in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients, particularly those with the APOE4 risk gene. Their findings suggest that cellular senescence in these ...

A team in China has demonstrated the simultaneous teleportation of multiple sideband qumodes in a continuous-variable system, overcoming a longstanding technical barrier.

Hidden within cancer DNA data, researchers uncovered viruses and bacteria that may influence both diagnosis and survival.

A 1.98-square-micrometer QR code, etched into ceramic thin film and verified by Guinness, showcases a new approach to ultra-dense, long-term data storage.

Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a ...

Scientists testing a popular climate theory in Antarctica found that melting glaciers deliver far less iron to the ocean than ...

New analysis of Neanderthal bones from Belgium indicates targeted cannibalism of outsiders that may signal territorial conflict before their regional disappearance.
