The SAGA Survey just published three new research articles that provide us with new insights into the uniqueness of our own Milky Way Galaxy after completing the census of 101 satellite systems similar to the Milky Way’s.
The German Falling Walls Foundation is recognizing Argonne physicist Saw Wai Hla for X-ray research that could be widely applied in environmental and medical research and the development of batteries and microelectronic devices.
A research team has unveiled significant differences in the nutritional and phytochemical composition of lily bulbs, depending on the drying methods used.
The American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM) proudly announces Dr. Marianne de Visser as the 2024 Honorary Member Award recipient for her dedication to her students, patients, and research.
Bin Li’s research team from Shenyang Agricultural University highlights the potential of malvidin-3-O-galactoside (M3G), a blueberry-derived anthocyanin, to improve colonic mucosal barrier function and alleviate colitis symptoms.
Amid a crowded field of galaxies captured by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, one otherwise inconspicuous galaxy stands out for emitting a light signature that astronomers have never seen before. Together, an observational astronomer and a theorist investigated potential causes.
Researchers have discovered a new way to help liquid flow in only one direction, but without using the flaps that engines and our circulatory system rely upon to prevent fluid backup.
This paper frames hardware-aware neural network pruning as a multi-objective optimization problem and introduces HAMP, a memetic Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) that optimizes both accuracy and hardware efficiency through portfolio-based selection and surrogate-assisted local search.
Two Department of Energy (DOE) offices have funded $6 million in research projects for an inaugural partnership to better prepare the nation for multiple disruptive power events and enable rapid response in a crisis for U.S. grid operators.
Plant molecular farming (PMF) is an efficient strategy for producing recombinant protein. Tobacco plants, known for their short life cycle and large biomass production capacity, are excellent choices for PMF. In this review, researchers from institutes across China and Korea reviewed strategies for guiding recombinant proteins into different subcellular compartments of the cell. Findings reported in this review are extremely significant as optimized localization of recombinant proteins is crucial for pharmacological industries.
Coral reefs will continue to experience severe heat stress as rising temperatures cause the oceans to become unbearably hot – but a new study shows that altering their feeding habits could allow local populations to avoid total extinction.
A new paper in Nature Machine Intelligence notes that journal articles reporting how well machine learning models solve certain kinds of equations are often overly optimistic. The researchers suggest two rules for reporting results and systemic changes to encourage clarity and accuracy in reporting.
Predatory snails drill holes in the shells of their prey. Using these boreholes, a research team led by palaeontologist Martin Zuschin from the University of Vienna was able to create a time series of predator-prey relationships in the northern Adriatic over the past millennia. This showed that human influences led to a collapse in predator-prey relationships from the 1950s onwards.
This study presents a highly efficient thermal simulation method using a non-gray phonon Boltzmann transport equation. By integrating first-principles phonon properties and advanced computational techniques, the method avoids empirical parameters and achieves remarkable efficiency, solving large-scale 3D problems in under two hours on a personal computer.
Independent of the temperature and humidity carried by the airflow, portable respiratory sensors are capable of continuously detecting respiratory intensity and frequency. Respiratory monitoring assesses physiological status and potential disease, preventing the escalation of adverse health conditions through early detection of recurrent wheezing, sleep apnoea and diabetes-induced kussmaul breathing.
Ruby Sharrard and Olivia Allen, two aerospace engineering seniors from The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, were selected to present their propulsion research at the University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics (UCAH) fall forum in Alexandria, Va.
